Proposal of a Fedora site for teaching at new contributors A.K.A Fedora College - My talk in Flock

[Eduardo Javier Echeverria Alvarado]

Hi folks, I'm Eduardo Echeverria (echevemaster), ambassador and
packager maintainer

On the Fedora Latam community, my colleagues and me, we have been
developing an idea about a site dedicated to teaching new contributors
through of videocast, is well known that the people learn much better
of visual form; nowadays we have a wiki with an enormous quantity of
information, certainly very valuable;  that has been constructed
through of the years; I want to do a complement for that. A site that
would be as an extensive library of content of our procedures,
guidelines, roles for  becoming a fedora contributor.

We can all remember our beginnings in Fedora, maybe someone we tended
a hand, maybe someone used his time to teach us  about how to do
things, the fact is that with the passage of time we have gained
experience; so it would be very good to take a few minutes of our time
to make a video about our skills about the group that we belong
(packaging , translation, documentation, among others) over time we
will achieve a broad base of content that will make more easier the
path to become an experienced contributor.

The idea is to build an online learning environment using video-based
educational resources, (yes, other new guidelines apply here, :)  with
validated content provided by the community at large, and that we can
correct errors or answer questions before to do the "real work" in
Fedora.

Very soon we will to present to you, the workflow, code repository and
mailing list so they can contribute at this new project.

Sadly I can't attend to the flock in person, due to personal motives;
I'll to do my talk in video, I advance you ,  that my pronunciation in
english is still limited and I'll try of talk as clear as possible.

Here you go my talk,  all advices are welcomed
