Self-Introduction

[Kevin Becker]

Hello everyone, I just signed up for the mailing list and am interesting in contributing
to the Fedora Docs project.  I have not contributed to any open source projects in the
past (apart from a tiny pull request that was accepted to systemd).  I’ve written internal
technical documentation for my job in the past and I occasionally write technical articles
on topics of interest to me on my blog at http://kevinbecker.org
<http://kevinbecker.org/> but that’s about it.

I’m a network/system admin at a midsized company currently.  I’ve worked in IT for the
past 25 years or so and have experience with everything from NetWare in the old days,
through most flavors of Windows, RHEL, and even macOS.  I’ve used linux on and off since
the mid 90s, starting out with Slackware, before moving on to Red Hat.  I moved away from
Linux on the desktop when OS X started to get usable in the early 2000s but over the past
few years, after a little bit of distro hopping, I’ve moved back to Fedora as my primary
desktop OS for personal use.

I’ve done a lot of scripting but very little “real” coding.  I’ve considered getting into
package maintenance, as I did Windows packaging for many years, but haven’t made the time
to dig into it yet, so in the mean time I hoped that I might be able to give back to the
community a bit by helping out with documentation.
