[diversity] newcomer from Latin America

[Cassio Raposa]

Hello, fellows,

My name is Cassio, going by the alias “Zadig” online. You may call me
as you prefer :)
I am a Brazilian, Linux user since… 98 I guess? Never got in touch
with the online community, but have been promoting foss ideals for
many years now, being with costumers, students, acquaintances etc.
AFK I’m mostly committed with environmental causes. Kinda like a
marginalized person because I come from a very wealthy family, which
gave me a higher level education, way of acting and speaking, but I
chose to get away from such parcel of our society due to several
reasons (most of ‘em social ones), however, having such background, it
is very difficult to be accepted in other places. It’s a very unusual
situation, but I swear I’m a nice guy :).
Me, in short:
·vegan
·living with a dog (a veeeery special one)
·programmer
·retrogamer
·completely out of the ordinary guy considering work, life style, friends, etc.

Finally trying to get over the online barrier, so, yeah, I’d like to
join this goup.
Nice to meet you all.

Kindly yours,

Zadig

Hi Cassio,

Thanks for introducing yourself and very warm welcome.
Diversity team is playing major role in Fedora to make it more inclusive 
community.
You can have more insight about it here [1].

We are having bi-weekly meetings (Diversity Team IRC Meeting on 
2017-05-31 from 07:00:00 to 08:00:00 US/Eastern), it will be great if 
you can attend these meetings. Feel free to subscribe to our mailing 
list [2] and have a look at our task queue [3].

Looking forward for a great contribution from you in diversity.

Thanks & Regards,
Amita
