If you happen to choose this path, this is where you start:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Join

You may want to build up some bash skills if you don't feel absolutely
comfortable with it. I recommend the following tutorial:
http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide

In addition to adding new packages to our repertoire, we also need
help with the existing packages.

If you follow the instructions to become a packager, you will come to
a stage where you need to find a sponsor. Let me know if/when that
happens.

Cheers,
Orcan
