Not lately. I've been busy/traveling for work and haven't had time. I do plan 
to.

N/A. Already committed to sysadmin work.

I believe the current easyfix list is beyond my skillset currently.

>4. Do you still wish to be a member of the group? If not (for whatever
>reason) could you provide any hints to help others down the road?
Yep, absolutely. 

>5. Is there any help or communication or ideas you have that would help
>you do any of the above?
Not really. Just trying to find tickets to work on. I get that it's a 
complicated architecture, so I'm not complaining, just keeping my eye out.

>6. What do you find to be the hardest part of getting involved? Finding
>things to work on? Getting attention from others to help you? Finding
>tickets in your interest area?
Finding tickets that are easyfix-ish and/or easy to work on without knowing a 
lot about how all the pieces interact within the architecture. The other main 
admins are very helpful and usually conversational about pieces, so it's okay. 
I just need to put in more time to find the right things for me to work on.

>7. Have you been able to make any weekly irc meetings? Do you find them
>helpful or interesting? Do you have any suggestions for changing them?
Yes I have. I've missed one or two. I have no suggestions and I think they're 
helpful.

Yep.

I still wish to contribute on the sysadmin/operations side.  Anything and 
everything I can do to help!

Yes. I helped smooge with ticket #5931
Some of the current easyfix tickets seem beyond my skillset in terms of 
understanding the current infrastructure, but I'll keep my eye out.

Not currently. I try to contribute whenever there's something I can help with.

I think it's difficult to get tickets and get involved. The easyfix list is 
only a small percentage of the actual issues logged on pagure, and it looks 
like the easyfix ansible role is stagnant. I understand it's tough to asses the 
skill level of all the apprentices, so adding to the easyfix is not that simple 
for the senior admins.  I would like to help out more but it's tough to know 
where to start. I've been going through the Ansible master trying to find typos 
and such, but beyond that, I'm not sure where to contribute. I think with the 
infrastructure being so big it's taking time for me (and other new people) to 
understand how all the pieces work.  I think in the beginning it's tough to get 
work done without actually being assigned projects/tickets by a senior admin.

Yes. I think they are helpful. I have no suggestions currently to improve them.

 If there's anything I can do to contribute or help more, I'd love to. Please

Hi David! Welcome to the Fedora Project's Infrastructure team. 

You might also check out #fedora-noc, which has tie-ins to Nagios for 
monitoring, so we get alerts. There's also usually discussion there about 
fixing stuff.
Since you have a development background, I'll link you to the development guide 
for Infra: 
https://fedora-infra-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dev-guide/index.html but 
feel free to also check out the system-admin guide at
