Hello,
My name is David Eisenstein, and I am interested in doing contributions to the Fedora Project. I am familiar with Fedora, and have run a couple of versions of Fedora, just not recently. I do run a couple of versions of CentOS (6 and 7) on virtual machines on my home PC, utillizing Fedora EPEL packages. (I prefer running CentOS because there is a lot more stability and much longer life-cycle than Fedora. Will get going with Fedora VM though soon.)
I used to be a contributor to Fedora, a number of years ago. The project was called Fedora Legacy, and I was quite active with it for a couple of years -- creating SRPM and RPM packages, tracking down security issues, doing QA, working with Jesse Keating who worked for a number of years for Red Hat as the Fedora Release Engineer. Have kept up my Linux skills and am wanting to (re)start giving back to the community as well as hone my Linux skills to help me qualify for work in the DevOps field or something similar with Red Hat Enterprise Linux skills. Am studying to become (at least) RHCE certified, at present.
I have already a wiki page at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DavidEisenstein
which has information about what I used to do in the old dead Fedora Legacy Project. (I cannot yet edit that page to reflect any association with this group.)
And, for historical sake, in case anyone is curious, here is a link to an archived page of the old fedoralegacy.org, as it existed at this time approximately 11 years ago when it was a vital project:
http://web.archive.org/web/20060410131351/http://fedoralegacy.org/
and from there, the curious can click links to see the old MoinMoin Fedora Legacy wiki pages: http://web.archive.org/web/20060411170211/http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Lega...
Anyway, I once again would like to contribute to the Free Software effort. Looking forward to getting to know you all better, figure out how I can fit in, and once again getting my hands dirty helping out with Fedora work.
Cheers, David
