Self Introduction: Aurelie Deromedis

[Aurelie Deromedis]

Hi everyone,

my name is Aurelie and I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Italian but
I've been living in London for 5 years. I'm a Linux SysAdmin. I've been
using Linux since I was 17 (11 years professionally). I'm 38. I've used
several different distribution over the years, as all of us I guess.
But I'm kind of settle on Fedora now (it literally flies on my Dell XPS
13 Developer Edition, I love it... :-) ) and I'm about to start in a
new Job in a month time. This has given me time to focus on what I
really like. And that's why I'm here writing this email to you.

I'd like to contribute and I think I might help with packages and
looking after the Fedora Infrastructure. That's also why I'm sending
this two both the mailing lists.

I'm reading and experimenting with the Fedora packaging system (https:/
/docs.fedoraproject.org/en-
US/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/index.html) but I'm
not sure where to start really. I'm keeping an eye on the devel mailing
list for package reviews as well, just to learn what needs to be
checked. I have no previous experience in packaging at this level (I've
built simple custom packages in the companies I've worked for, but not
at this level of expertise and complexity).

From a SysAdmin perspective I have 11 years of experience. In the last
5 years I've been working on RedHat 5/6/7. I have a really good
experience with RH Clusters too (cman, rgmanager, corosync, pacemaker,
etc...). Satellite 5/6, Katello, Spacewalk, IPA, Free IPA, LDAP,
GPFS/GFS2 and in general shared filesystems. I've been using Chef at a
good level in the last year and a half (VMware VM's deployment and
management, RH7 Clusters deployment). In the last month I've also
started learning Python and I love it. I hope to use it here and at
work as too really soon.

Here's my LinkedIn account if you are curious. My nickname on
Fedoraproject is "Aurelie". Public SSH key and PGP Key are in my FAS
account.


So ya, I'm keen to give my contribute and any suggestion/advice about
where to start and how would be much appreciated. I think I should be
able to dedicate 5/7 hours a week to this. 


Thanks in advance and have a lovely day,

Aurelie Deromedis.

If you are more into coding, this might be good start:

https://fedoraproject.org/easyfix/

If you want focus more on the packaging, this migt be good start:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist

But the best start might be to look at you favorite packages and submit
some fixes/updates into BZ for example. This might be the easier path to
become package maintainer:

Hello and welcome!

I would suggest to take a look at the python packaging guidelines, since a python module
can be quite simple to package (in most cases at least).
