Hello World!
Hi Chris!
My name is Christian Glombek (or simply Chris :) and I'd like to
join the
Fedora Packagers Group. I'm currently a student of Electrical Engineering
and Business Management at RWTH University in Aachen, Germany.
My FAS and IRC handle is `lorbus` and on GitHub and Twitter I'm
`LorbusChris`. I've been using Fedora for two or so years on my daily
drivers, very much to my satisfaction.
Fedora's focus on modern concepts, especially container technology,
intrigues me. Its community to me has always seemed open, friendly, diverse
and knowledgeable.
I also feel that Fedora's sponsor Red Hat has established a symbiotic
relationship with this community, transparently supporting a quite
remarkable and rightfully successful business model.
I feel passionate about Open Source Technology and would like to
participate!

ragel-rpm / colm-rpm:
I also did some work updating the already-existing Ragel (dep of Rspamd) and
Colm (dep of Ragel) rpms and was consequently asked by current repo
maintainer Jason Taylor (jtaylor) to take over the position, which I'll
gladly do once I've found a sponsor and get the privilege of joining the
packagers' group!
I'd like to try out Modularity packaging for Ragel as it has two release
streams, stable and development, of which only the latter is in Fedora.
(I made a ragel-compat rpm for the stable release stream, which can be found
on COPR, but I believe Modularity's arbitrary branching would be a perfect
fit here!)
COPR ragel-compat:

Thank you for your contributions with the ragel and colm packages, I
am looking forward to working with you on these packages and others!
