Your goals in the Fedora Project:
Help make the Fedora "desktop" insanely great for end-users; get my
mother using it.
Which packages do you want to see published?
I've been packaging Evolution and its dependencies for the last few

want to push python-ldap into the core package set.
Do you want to do QA?
No, though I run Rawhide and try to fix stuff when it breaks.
Anything else special?
I'm the upstream maintainer of Conglomerate (www.conglomerate.org),
which I hack on at weekends, trying to get it more stable.

What other projects have you worked on in the past?
As discussed above, plus various hacking on random GNOME modules.
What computer languages and other skills do you know?
C, C++, Python, amongst others; know a fair bit about 3D and games, and
about XML. Been programming for over 20 years :-(
