Hi Sylvia! Welcome to Fedora CommOps. :) Remy pretty much said 
everything I would have said, but I wanted to add a few more things too.

Firstly, definitely subscribe to the mailing list to keep yourself 
updated on replies and new posts to the CommOps list. That will keep you 
in the loop about what's going on in our sub-project.

Secondly, another *super* awesome resource for becoming more familiar 
with IRC is this Fedora Magazine article. You may find some of the tips 
and info in here very useful for getting started.

     https://fedoramagazine.org/beginners-guide-irc/

Another +1 for playing around badges as a good way to get started. Not 
to mention you can pick up some stylish badges to show off on your 
Badges profile too!


Again, welcome to the team! Looking forward to having you here with us 
in CommOps and also with Fedora. :)
