hi everyone! i am writing this introductionary mail to introduce myself to the team and participants of diversity&inclusion from fedora. let us start with a little about my persona. i'm quite new to fedora, but since joining and getting into the project, diversity&inclusion is what had my attention from the very beginning, as i am well aware of how diversity and multiculturallity in projects, such as fedora, aswell as the inclusion of women in tech can be benefitial. and because i know, how important the inclusion of women, aswell as diversity is, i am looking forward into joining the group for inclusion & diversity on fedora, so that that together with successful teamwork we do our best on working towards and improving the future development of women in tech to guarantee the diversity of our fedora project, we all like for many years to come. from a more technical viewpoint, i like the edge, that fedora has regarding its software repositories always being up to date with every release to come. as with other communities, i have a year-long-passion&history with foss&the communities to it&several projects being open&free,just as fedora is. as of yet, there is a few areas,i am interested within fedora. i am mainly looking into contributing to d&i,because of its importance,aswell as contributing to commops,communication,marketing,social media and stuff related to the communicational representation of fedora. since bad advertising, kills a good product, it is even more important to indicate the diversial&inclusional part of fedora as an key-point. therefor i am looking forward to attending several events in the future, where foss, fedora, diversity & inclusion of women can be promoted, to build up and reach masses to create&reach awareness for the importance of diversity &inclusion for such big communities, as fedora is. i'm looking forward into getting in touch with as many of you, so that together as a team, we can be working towards our goals for inclusion and diversity within fedora&beyond.
Hi, welcome to our mailing list and welcome to the Fedora Project community. :) Thanks for sharing your excitement on getting involved. If you are looking for something to get started with, consider hosting a Fedora Women's Day in your local community. This is an international and regional event hosted by folks from countries all around the world. You can learn more about them here:

Otherwise, I suggest following the ticket discussions in the Pagure repo to learn more about what we are working on:
