Re: Introduction

[Maxim Burgerhout]

Thanks for the welcome, guys!

I lurked during the last meeting, but I don't think I'll be able to
attend the next two (the 24th already being part of Christmas (more or
less) in the Netherlands and the 31th being New Year's Eve: stuff has
been planned a long time ago).

Starting January 7th, I'll put the meeting in my weekly roster for
every Thursday evening. Starting today, I'll drop by in #fedora-admin
on a regular basis.

Looking forward to working with you all!

Hi Mike,

I was thinking of doing administration and some development on the
side, either under the sysadmin-web or sysadmin-tools FIGs.  Or simply
anything that would get me to familiarize and get started would be
great.

 We do a fair amount of coding in Fedora Infrastructure creating web

 using the TurboGears1 and TurboGears2 frameworks for those.  If you're

 If you're more interested in doing some work in C++, there's a few upstream
 projects that would definitely benefit Fedora for getting some attention.

 For instance, we have been wanting to get a good open source whiteboarding
 tool working with Fedora so that we can make mockups, create diagrams, and
 make use of other pictorial things during meetings.  Inkscape has the
 beginnings of a plugin but it needs someone to work on it to actually make
 it actually work.  If you're interested in that, the upstream developers
 are
 quite interested in getting some help and one of the devs is willing to
 help
 get someone up to speed on what needs to be done:

 The KDE SIG is another Fedora group that is in need of C++ coders.  Right
 now we have a good group of KDE packagers but having a few more coders will
 let them work more closely on any bugs that occur and also help drive
 features upstream.  If you use the KDE desktop, they'd be very happy to

Hi guys,
I just wanted to introduce myself. I am a Programmer Analyst who works for a
large fortune 500 company. I have been using Fedora for over 3 years and
would love to give back in any way that I can. I absolutely love what Fedora
and open source does and believe in both 100%. I am skilled in Java, J2EE,
C, C++, Python, HTML, CSS and a bunch of other technologies. I am an avid
programming language enthusiast and am working toward getting my Masters in
Computer Science. I would love to contribute to the website project in any
way that I can. I deal with website technology on a daily basis and feel
that I would be able to provide a lot of help to the fedora website team. No
task is to small. If you guys just need someone to enter text or change a
CSS style I am willing to do it. Thank you for your time and I look forward
to talking with all of you!

Introduction New subscriber - Contributor

[Rene Purcell]

Hi all,
My name is René Jr Purcell and I'd like to join the Fedora community and I
think the Infrastructure group is a good place to start!

I started using Linux with Slackware 4.0, I remember all those night trying
to understand this new way of thinking and using computer I had a lot of
fun and I really started to understand and have fun after few weeks of work
trying LFS (Linux From Scratch).

I've been working as a Linux administrator for ther past 6 years, working
with Suse linux enterprise server, RHEL and CentOS. During the past two
years I got my CLP and RHCE certification which push me to try and use
RedHat product. For now I'm trying to learn the administration of Oracle on
Linux and I'm working hard to become a master of RHEV. I'm using Fedora
daily, since Core 3 and I appreciate the work done by the community and I
think it's the time for me to give back!

Just like Ashley Biar ( who posted yesterday ) I'm not sure where I can
start helping, I would like to learn first how everyone work together on the
project, where are the biggest needs and I'll see later.. For now my main
interest are the system administration and I'm trying to find if my
knowledge of RPM could lead me to maintain/package rpms.

Looking forward to see/chat with you on IRC.

New Subscriber - Introduction

[Ashley Biar]

Hi All,


My name is Ash and I have just joined the Fedora Infrastructure group.
I've been playing around with Fedora in my spare time (when I could be
bothered :P) since 'Core 6', and only recently have I become more eager to
discover more about the OS.
I built a file server for home on Fedora 10 a while ago, and will be
performing a fresh install of Fedora 12 - once the download finishes.

I have been working as a Unix Administrator for the past 18 months primarily
working with HP-UX and RHEL3, along with IBM and EMC based SAN storage.
I also have some experience with HP Data Protector 5.5. Out backup
infrastructure consists of 2 physical tape libraries and 2 virtual tape
libraries.


I would like to participate in the fedora project in some way, however I'm
not too sure what I can offer - I thought I'd check it out.


Kind Regards,


Ashley Biar.

Excellent, the meetings are always good to attend.  Make sure to make
yourself known in case I forget.  At the end we always have an open floor
where people can talk about anything, that's a good time to introduce
yourself.  Have you seen our FIGs page?

Hi All,
 My name is Vivek Shah FAS account bonii. I am C,C++, Java
developer from India. I also work on Unix/Linux system administration
and web app development using Python and Java. I am also a package
maintainer for the Fedora project for the past 1 year. I would like to
be of help to the Fedora infrastructure group in the most suitable
way. Since I am not completely aware of which FIG would suit me most
and where I could be most useful, I would not like to jump to any
conclusions. Please guide me about the best way possible for me to
contribute.

I came like 20 min late, I had a class that finishes at 3:00pm (ie the

I guess UTC 20:00 is 15:00 in Fairfield, Iowa, if not mistaken... Or

with L10n of Firefox and Thunderbird. However, now I would like to
contribute to this community in particular in writing code. I have
some knowledge of Java (and currently studying another course in Java)
and Perl, I would say I'm good at PHP.

On the other hand, its really motivating to be part of a team of
software professionals and gain experience and enjoy the high spirit
of 'sharing' among the community of contributors.

Cheers!!

 Hey fedora-infrastructure-list, I would like to introduce myself to you all. 
 My name is Derrick, I go by the nick Actown
 in IRC and I am currently a first year student at Oregon State University 
 studying computer science.
 I started working with computers from a very young age. I had my own RH9 
 server on my home connection when I was 13. I
 ran a few websites and a IRC server on that old box. I have had a home server 
 running Linux ever since then and I have
 been using Linux on and off for my desktop needs. I know tiny bits of C/C++ 
 and python. I have done most of my code using
 PHP and MySQL, but I am working at my C skills currently.
 I am looking to help in any system administration area of the fedora 
 infrastructure. Helping fedora would provide me with
 a great learning experience and a great way to help the world of Linux and 
 open source.
 I'm located in Corvallis, Oregon and the time zone here is UTC-0700 (PDT).
 I am interested on joining the team because I haven't given anything back to 
 the community in the time I have been using
 Linux. Also, helping can provide me with real world experience with system 
 administration and teamwork. I look forward to
 talking with you all in the future in the IRC channel or in the meetings.


Hello Derrick!  Sorry I just realized I had not responded to this from the
weekend, my apologies.  Was there any specific area of the Infrastructure
you wanted to contribute to?  I see you're a student, do you happen to be
available at 20:00 UTC on Thursdays for our meetings?

Self Introduction

[Roman Schmitt]

Hello everyone,

I have been part of this mailing list for a while now and I don't believe I 
ever got around to introducing myself, so I'm going to. Please keep in mind 
that I am not a writer, and even if I was, talking about myself would not be my 
specialty.

I was first introduced to Linux over nine years ago(RHL), and have been using 
it as a primary OS for about three years now. I have tried 60 or so flavors and 
Fedora is by far one of my favorites and most fun to mess with. 

My skills include Python, Bash scripting, MySQL and many of the other DB apps, 
HTML, as well as a bit of C++. I would classify my Python and Bash as 
intermediate, I am no guru or wizard, but I continuously work on it. I also 
have and fiddle with a couple clusters of PCs setup as servers, mostly just to 
gain the experience of configuring and maintaining it, although i would imagine 
it's vastly easier than working with a whole server farm or even just a rack.

I am in academia for CS (more specifically Network and Databases at the moment) 
and about to have my Associates degree. My plan is to continue on and get my 
Ph.D, but that's a whole other story.

My reason/motivation to be part of and involved in the Fedora community is to 
lend my skills and assistance wherever they may be needed and useful, possibly 
increase my skill set, learn more about Fedora and Linux in general(it appears 
almost infinite what can be done with it), just pure interest in how everything 
(Fedora and the community) works, and a belief in the Open Source philosophy.

If there is anything that somebody believes I could/should help with or work on 
or just should know then please point me in the right direction. Also, let me 
know if I am being too long-winded.I hangout and/or dwell on IRC as romansb.

Thanks,
Roman

Introduction

[l...@williams-freelancing.co.uk]

Hi,

Looking at the wiki it says to introduce myself.

Well here goes...

I'm married with 3 kids (aged 4, 2, 1 :D)... full time job but I do get time to
spare surprisingly  I love my family to pieces they mean the world to me.

I've been working in IT for 10yrs now all in a Microsoft DOS / Windows based
environment, starting with development in FoxBASE and FoxPro and moving through
the versions to visual fox.  I've not attended university but have never had a
problem with reading / googlin' bits to learn new things; I do get quite a kick
from picking up new to me technologies and helping to solve problems. 

Currently I work full time as a Visual Studio developer with Technology
Management Ltd. in the UK developing .NET applications for the WinCE / Windows
Mobile based mobile device market.  Those applications are mainly written in C#
but we do have a significant VB.net code base.

Following the latest Microsoft based OS crash at home a rebuild has become
necessary which I started this weekend - yesterday in fact, so I made the choice
to make Linux my main OS; to be fair it should've been from when I dabbled with
Fedora 7 and 8 thereafter... still... my foot has gone down, and my wife is
scheduled a tour of Fedora at the weekend ;)  

I have recently bootstrapped myself to other languages C / C++ and php for web
work I'm finding this interesting to say the least.  I do have some experience
with Apache and MySQL (obviously the strong knowledge I have in Internet
Information Services and SQL Server have been somewhat transferable).  It looks
like I need to add python to the list of things to learn and this is something
I've been mulling over so may just make that leap. 

From all of that I'm hoping you can tell that whilst I have very little
experience with 'nix environments I am keen to learn just need some guidance on
where to go to pick that up.

Away from PC's (if there ever is such time) I play guitar - well I play guitar,
banjo, and mandolin to be honest.  The last two I'm not so hot at but I can
hold my own - to coin a phrase - on the guitar.  I also love to read; and have
- of all things - recently started dabbling in magic and performance thereof
but... now I'm rambling :D

I look forward to helping in whatever way I can.  I'm looking for a good place
to start, I'm obviously following the wiki, reading up when I can, and of course
getting my own Fedora environment setup (although I do have one running in
VirtualBox at work to satiate the 'nix desires whilst I'm at work :D).

I'm am currently hoping to help in the sysadmin-devel FIG.

So hello nice to meet and greet, and I hope you're well.

 thanks for the information and reply, I wanted to attend yesterday's
 meeting but have been busy with real life (every now and then GF asks
 for some time...) but I'm reading meeting's logs right now :)

 Once I'll be done with wiki and the rest I'll reply to the mail and

Hello all again,

I'm finally done with reading all the docs/wiki I could find (split
between job and RHCE preparation it took me more than I thought) so I
was wondering if there is something I've missed or useful
docs/wiki/whatever that I should check, any  suggestion is highly
appreciated.

I've been also skimming through the ticket system to see what are the
usual requests and become familiar with it, tonight I'll attend the
first meeting so I can meet some of you.

I've also been reading about the various FIG and I think the ones I'm
more suitable for are the sysadmin-noc and/or sysadmin-test as what is
done in the groups is more or less part of my daily duties at work but
as I wrote in another mail I'm really keen to do anything that is needed
at the moment.

Introduction

[Mike Santangelo]

Hi all,

I'm following along with the wiki and have reached the point where 
I need to send an introduction e-mail to the list. :)


My name is Mike Santangelo and I'm a linux consultant within Red Hat. I 
decided I wanted to get more involved and volunteer in the Fedora side 
of the house as my time permits, so the infrastructure team looked like 
a good place for me and my skills.


I've been working with various *nix's for around 17 years now, starting 
with ATT Unix way back in '92. Solaris was probably the OS I worked 
with the most leading up to when I started working on Red Hat products 
full time. I have worked with Red Hat products professionally off and on 
since 2002 or so, and been experimenting with various Linux flavors 
since the late 90's.


I'm an RHCE with a Certificate of Expertise in Enterprise Storage 
Management (GFS and Clustering), and hope to get my certificate in 
Satellite soon. I have done a lot of engagements centered around 
Satellite and Clustering in the last year and a half so I am fairly 
strong on those technologies. I'm also a very good troubleshooter, which 
I think is my strongest skill. That, and I'm not afraid to go ask for 
help if I don't know something.


I hope to be able to make some of the meetings soon. Since I'm a 
consultant I am on the road a lot so schedules can be tough, but I will 
definitely try.  I'm not involved in anything else with Fedora yet, as 
infrastructure seemed like the natural first place for me as I looked 
around.


Thanks and look forward to working with everyone,

-Mike

Introduction

[Allen Kistler]

It's probably a bit odd to introduce myself after having posted a few
messages here, but I've been interested in joining this group for a
while, though I haven't signed up in FAS as more than CLA, yet.

I've been doing info security consulting for about the past ten years,
although I don't consider myself exclusively a security guy.  Part of
that consulting has been Linux.  Part of that's been Sun, Cisco, etc.
I've been using and abusing RHL and Fedora since RHL 7.0.  I'm no
stranger to shell (sh/bash) scripting.  There's a bit of perl in there, too.

I'm an RHCE and a CCNA.

For Fedora contributions to date, they've mostly been testing (lots
during F11), filing bugs, and submitting a few patches.

I should be attending the IRC meeting today (or tomorrow, depending when
you read this).  I look forward to working with you and contributing
whatever I can.

I have a Bachelor's in Computer Science, and I am currently pursuing a

Some Python
Some PostgreSQL
Started learning some Django.

I want to be involved in the Fedora community by helping out where I

If you're interested in Django, one project that started off purely in
Fedora but has become more of its own upstream is transifex
(http://www.transifex.org,  #transifex on irc.freenode.net).  diegobz,
glezos, and ivazquez are all Fedora community members as well as
transifex hackers.  Our particular transifex instance is at:
https://translate.fedoraproject.org

Most of the rest of our web apps are written for the TurboGears 1
framework.  We're going to port them to TG2 at some point in the
indefinite future (probably when someone volunteers to make it their pet
project :-).

If there's one particular web application that you're interested in, I
can help get you started.  If you just want someone to suggest
something, I can have you look through the tickets for the packagedb and
we can find something for you to work on :-)

best way to reach me is abadger1999 on irc.freenode.net -- #fedora-admin
but email to this list also works.

Hello Chris.  We have several development projects going on at the moment.
One you may be interested in is Fedora Community -
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/community/

Here's the project page: https://fedorahosted.org/fedoracommunity/

We hang out on irc.freenode.net in #fedora-admin, stop by sometime.

If you're interested in Django, one project that started off purely in
Fedora but has become more of its own upstream is transifex
(http://www.transifex.org,  #transifex on irc.freenode.net).  diegobz,
glezos, and ivazquez are all Fedora community members as well as
transifex hackers.  Our particular transifex instance is at:
https://translate.fedoraproject.org

Most of the rest of our web apps are written for the TurboGears 1
framework.  We're going to port them to TG2 at some point in the
indefinite future (probably when someone volunteers to make it their pet
project :-).

If there's one particular web application that you're interested in, I
can help get you started.  If you just want someone to suggest
something, I can have you look through the tickets for the packagedb and
we can find something for you to work on :-)

best way to reach me is abadger1999 on irc.freenode.net -- #fedora-admin
but email to this list also works.

Infrastructure Introduction

[t...@codero.com]

Hello,

I previously worked with the Fedora Infrastructure group a year or two
ago, unfortunately life prevailed and I was unable to help out much. At
this time things have changed and I feel that I now have the time to
help contribute to the project.

I currently work as a Systems Administrator, and helped develop,
implement, and maintain a large managed server environment (100+ servers
- CentOS based), which range from standard one server web sites, to load
balancing and MySQL/DRBD clusters.

I am interested in re-joining the sysadmin tools and noc FIG's and
previously had sponsorship by Mike McGrath and Matt Domsch. If you would
like any additional information about my current skill set please feel
free to email me. Thank you for your time, see you in IRC.

Infrastructure Introduction

[Terrance Hutchinson]

Hi,


I am highly interested in joining the Fedora Infrastructure team. I am a
Systems Integration Engineer/Software Developer for Hewlett-Packard in the
NAS/SAN division. I have been here for about 1 year
and before that was IT administrator for my schools Engineering department.
I was in charge of maintaining all of the EDA servers as well
as Linux workstations (100+). At my job now I deal with a lot of storage,
manipulating, optimizing storage for various types of Application Servers.I
use Fedora as my workstation OS and I am the team linux guru. I am skilled
in HTML/CSS/JavaScript as well as Perl, Python and TCL/Tk.
I am fluent in the C/C++ and java programming languages.This could range
from performance issues to full on bug-hunts. I also manage our RHEL
vritualization clusters for client testing. Another part of my job is to
create rpm's and source tarballs for the various software and utilities we
use. I have experience in package management and I working on becoming a
package maintainer in Fedora. I have access to about 3 servers
that I can use for development, two are loaded up to be virtual app servers
and one is File Server (iSCSI and NFS). I am also a Fedora Ambassador for my
area.


If you need to know more or if there is more I need to do please let me know
as I would love to be part of the team.


Thanks for taking the time to read this email. I look forward to working
with such an awesome group of people.

Hiya. Infrastructure newbie here. I'm Mel; some of you have seen me 
around (particularly in Marketing). 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Mchua has more introduction-esque stuff.


Ricky sponsored me for sysadmin-test so I can get up a test instance of 
zikula for FI (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight) - copious 
documentation being written at 
http://blog.melchua.com/2009/08/16/how-the-zikula-based-test-instance-of-fi-was-put-up-part-1/ 
(to be turned into wiki notes when everything is up and working). [1]


This is the first time I've done sysadmin-type stuff on a box that 
wasn't my own personal computer, and it's been fascinating so far to 
learn how things work when multiple users get involved. You'll see 
questions from me on IRC (mchua) once in a while - thanks to everyone 
who's been extending such a warm welcome! This is much less scary than I 
thought it would be. ;)


--Mel

[1] If anyone's interested in playing with a Real Zikula Project early, 
we could definitely use help; we're serving as a guinea pig for future 
bigger projects like The Great Docs Migration, so there's a ton of stuff 
I don't think anybody really knows yet. If someone's looking for a 
project for the remainder of F12 and wants to learn about zikula and run 
with the tech/infrastructure stuff for FI for a few months, we should talk.

An Introduction

[shawn mccarthy]

Hello All,

My name is Shawn, I have just recently joined the fedora infrastructure
list.
I have been working for Linux and Unix Operating systems for about 10 years
as both an administrator and developer.

As an administrator I have been part of teams that were responsible for
managing large internet service application, monitoring of systems from
end-to-end.
As a Developer I have worked in Java, c/c++, perl, shell scripts, and more
recently python/jython.  I am currently reading about scripting languages in
Java and collective intelligence.

I want to get more involved in the Fedora project as I have been using the
product on and off for about 4 years and I really like the distribution.  I
enjoy working on projects and figured I could give at least 5 hours or so a
week to help out.

Thanks,
Shawn

Introduction

[Julius Serrano]

Hi,

I am  Julius Serrano and I've been using linux for quite some time now. I
started with red hat 6.0 but I had most of my experiences with RH7.2, RH9.0,
RHEL4 and RHEL5. I am a programmer and a systems and database administrator
by profession. I have skills with Python (which is my language of choice),
PHP and Java, although my Python web framework experience mostly come from
Zope. Programming is my main passion but I also have administration skills.
My sysadmin experience cover NIS, LDAP, NFS, Samba, some Postfix, some Xen
failover clustering, and some DRBD. I also have experience with the
administration of Apache, Nagios, CVS and Subversion. As for being a db
admin, I manage MySQL databases including their replication.

I want to be involved in the Fedora project and I hope to somehow contribute
something, in one way or another, to F12. Right now, I am mostly trying to
familiarize myself on things and the meeting later would probably give me a
good start.

Thank you very much.

Cheers,
Julius Serrano

An Introduction

[Jason Walsh]

Hello Fedora Infrastucture,

My name is Jason Walsh, I am 16 years old and have been using
GNU/Linux for about 2 years now. My first exposure to Linux was an
Ubuntu 7.04 beta, and I continued using Ubuntu for several months
after that. Following Ubuntu, I wanted to learn more about Linux, and
switched to Arch, which I stayed on for about 10 months. Along with
some friends, I currently admister an Arch Linux server on which we
have deployed several Web technologies including PHP, Python, and
Rails. I'm still fairly new to Fedora, only having been using it since
the release of Leonidas. Already, however, I love it, as I feel it
combines both ease-of-use and cutting edge software.

Around the same time I started running Linux, I cut my teeth on
programming with Java. Shortly after, I learned the breath of fresh
air that is Python. I have been actively coding personal projects in
Python for about a year now, and have contributed small amounts of
code to the open-source project Crunchy. While I have mainly used
Django for Web development, I have also dabbled in TurboGears and
other frameworks.

I want to become involved in the Fedora project because I really like
the Fedora distribution itself, enjoy working on open source projects,
and believe in the philosophy of free software. I feel that the
infrastructure group is the place where I can be most useful to the
Fedora project.

This summer I am working as an intern at an IT company in their
Managed Services department, doing things such as monitoring, system
deployment, and image creation. (Unfortunately, with the exception of
a few RHCE's, it's an entirely M$ shop).  At the end of summer, I will
begin my junior year in high school, which promises to be busy.
However, I think I will be able to donate about 3-4 hours a week to
the project. My entire FOSS career has been self-motivated and
self-taught, and hope to continue that with the infrastrcuture
project.

I'm located in Middle America, Central Standard Time. My IRC nick is
jpwdsm, and I'm on XMPP as ja...@jabber.org.

Sorry if that was a little long winded :)
Thanks,
Jason Walsh

Hey, welcome - a lot of our apps are written in Python, primarily
TurboGears, so that's great!  If you're interested in working with
those, we always have a lot of tasks on most of our web apps.

We mostly hang out in #fedora-admin on Freenode if you're not there

In my defense for working on blogs, is I run my own blog on my own

Introduction: Sandro red Mathys

[Sandro red Mathys]

Hi list,

I'm the new guy around and I would like to get involved with the
infrastructure. While I'm already a active ambassador for over 2 years, I
only just started packaging some RPMs and only just subscribed to the
infrastructure list.

In $DAYJOB-life I'm a (RHEL) Linux Systems Engineer (aka sysadmin) at the
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ). There I administer the
RHN satellite and proxies and the RHEL servers where those services are
running on. Additionally I give 2nd/3rd level support on RHEL servers and
clients to our (internal) clients, for which we are running the satellite.
In all of ETHZ, there's 1000 RHEL running.

I'd be interested to help the infrastructure team in terms of
OS-administration and maybe security. I'm not experienced with large
infrastructure systems as I only run some non-critical servers and as for
security, I only know some random things yet but I'm eager to learn more
(will also go into that direction for the $DAYJOB). Oh, and I'm a RHCE,
targeting RHCA.

I'm located in Zurich, Switzerland, Central Europe (UTC+1/UTC+2) and the
time I have available to help out is limited and really irregular.

Someone please point me to the right people or tasks or whatever. I'll read
the wiki pages once I'll have time (I'm sitting at LinuxTag/FUDCon EMEA
right now) and try to get to some meeting once in a while. And once I'm back
home, I'll join the IRC channel, too.

Thanks,
red

[Bobby Cox]

Hello Everyone.   My name is Bobby Cox and a Linux SA in Houston, TX.   
I've been working with linux/unix for about 8 years now.   I currently  
work for a start up helping expose others to open-source by providing  
VMs of various open-source projects for use via a browser.


I started with RH 5.2, then moved to Gentoo and then Fedora, CentOS  
and RHEL depending on the environment.  I can script in shell, perl  
and am currently learning python.


Please allow me to help when and where necessary.  It would be a honor  
to help the Fedora Project.

Ahh yes!  You were asking about C/C++ a few months ago.  One other link
that wsa put up recently included:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ContributingCode

Which are all worth a look.  The tricky part in Infrastructure is that we
have almost no C/C++, Java or perl that we use which makes it difficult
for us to find a place to use you, but that's not to say we can't.  I'll
think on this some more and see if any others have additional ideas.  In
the meantime though, give that link a look.

Hello Mayuresh, if you're good with C/C++ you might want to look at
joining the bugzappers group.  While we work on the servers to support the
OS, they actually improve Fedora by finding and submitting patches, your
skill set could do well there.  If you still want to do infrastructure
hanging out in #fedora-admin is the best place to start... and if you have
time for it you can do both bugzappers and infrastructure ;)

network professional having been in the industry for more than 18
years. I used to be a coder (from assembler to C) but now working as a
network manager. I don't consider myself a newbie though I also don't
call myself a h4ck3r :-) but I do know my way around computers and the
Internet.

I have time available and want to contribute it to this dynamic team.
i used to do shell scripts but that part is now rusted because my
company now is using closed source softwares. As the nature of things
outside of the US, we techies don't have any specialization to speak
of. If you know a little sql command, bang!, you're the dba. but i do
know my dns (also rusty), firewalls (closed source too), WAN
management, UTP network cabling (handmade), install and maintain
server OS, do patches, and other things as needed to do the job.

Lookin at the FIG, I'm not sure which to join I hope someone can
suggest a starting point?

Am looking forward to contribute and hope to see you soon!

Hello everyone,
 My name is Cliff Chandler, and I'm a student at GA State University. I'm 
really looking forward to being involved with Fedora. I've been using Fedora 
since Fedora 6, and I've been gradually using it more and more, and now I 
nearly depend on it. At school I do all my programming in Java, so I've become 
quite proficient at that, however in my free time,
I prefer to write in C and play with OpenGL and SDL. As for web development, I 
am comfortable with HTML/CSS, PHP (and SQL when a database is needed), and 
basic JavaScript. Python seems to be more important every day, so I've just 
started with that as well. I've checked out the infrastructure/getting started

Hi Cliff!

If you're looking to program in C, Fedora does a lot of work upstream on
a lot of programs written in C.  Offering to look into bugs and do
debugging of issues in C programs in fedora-devel-list is one,
Fedora-centric way to get involved there.  Working with upstreams
directly to code new features that Fedora wants is another way.

If you're looking to do more things directly related to Fedora, the web
team and infrastructure could both use your talents in web development.
 Infrastructure concentrates more on programming the web applications
that we run (the accounts system, package database, koji build system,
bodhi updates, mirrormanager, smolt, and others).  These are all written
in python using the TurboGears web framework.  There's work for people
interested in working with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Python here.
ricky, ianweller, and mizmo can better fill you in on what they could
put you to work doing in websites.

If you're on IRC we all tend to hang out on irc.freenode.net,
#fedora-admin (infrastructure) and #fedora-websites  I'm abadger1999 if
you have questions about getting started in an initial project.

[Nadim Kobeissi]

Hi!
My name is Nadim. I'm a psychology sophmore and computer science minor at
the Lebanese American University in Beirut, Lebanon.

I became acquainted with Fedora after deciding to try it after three years
of Gentoo Linux usage on various servers and desktops I've built and
maintained throughout.
I found Fedora to be an awesome distribution, and having had much experience
with Gentoo server building and administration (I've set up many servers for
my university and am the founder of Anapnea, the Open Gentoo Linux shell
server (http://anapnea.net)), I felt that maybe I could contribute with my
time and skill to help out with the Fedora project as much as I can, in
whatever area I am capable to help in.

I'll be attending today's IRC fedora-meeting, and I look forward to being
able to contribute!!

I would love to finally get on with it and help.
As the message referenced below states I have been involved with 
sysadmin for a reasonably long time and believe I can help.
My current occupation deals with a full overhaul of the monitoring 
infrastructure for a public service using Nagios and a lot of packaging 
on the side...

  I subscribed to the fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com,
  signed up for a Fedora Account and sent an introduction with some notes 
  about myself.
  May be I have done something wrong?
 
 
 Nope, just checking.  What is your FAS username?
