IRC meetings
by Radka Janekova
Hey guys!
So what we need to do now, is to come up with a good time when (ideally)
everyone would be able to attend a meeting next week. We should make it a
regular weekly meeting in order to actually get somewhere in long term.
We can use this page[1] to grab times in your timezones. Select your
timezone on top of the page and then mark the times when you are available.
When you're done, sign it with your irc nick and submit. I already chose
the times that should more or less fine for both the US and EU. Don't
forget to exclude the times when you're already attending some other
regular meeting :]

You can find agenda for the first meeting on pagure[2]

Best regards,
Radka
*ps: redhatters talk to your manager if you need to attend during working
hours*

Re: Self-introduction
by Roddie Kieley
Hi Radka, likewise! Over the years I've worked with a couple of my own
C/C++
engines, starting out primarily DirectX based on Windows and ending up
OpenGL/ES based for OSX/iOS. From that there were two games released,
then
for a third I moved to Unity 3D 3.x/4.x.
Also got to use a number of inhouse engine's when working at various
places
via both original title's and porting work, all of which were native
C/C++
with enough Objective-C and Java JNI to get them to be cross platform
for
iOS and Android via the NDK.
Have also dabbled a little with Unreal and Ogre and have currently been
following the development of Oryol with interest.

Self-introduction (plus a little reminder)
by Radka Janekova
Hi everyone!
First of all I would like to thank you for your interest in dotnet on
linux, I hope that we can get it all together and make it all work nicely =)
My name is Radka, also known as Rhea in the online world. My professional
background is mostly in game development, where I was working with C++ and
a few other languages in the beginning and then switched to C# (in Unity
engine) which we used in several projects for Wargaming - we were working
on several prototypes for them and basically recreated World of Tanks from
scratch in only six weeks with additional features and game modes to be
tested before they would be implemented in the actual game. Over the last
few years I got more involved with open source and have a few popular C#
projects as well.
I started to work for RedHat only this summer, and I immediately jumped
all-in all things Fedora as well. Love the community on both sides :]
Now I would like to also take this opportunity to encourage the rest of
you guys who did not send similar intro yet, to do so, and to join the
freenode IRC #fedora-dotnet as well.
Please do join the FAS group[1] as well, and add yourself to the list on
our wiki page[2] =)

Self Introduction
by Patrick Creech
Hello there!
Thanks for getting this started! I've been looking into this myself as well, but have yet to build
dotnet in copr or anything.
I've provided answers to the self-indroduction below. my fas is pcreech17
1. Are you new to contributing to Fedora?
Nope
2. Already a contributor? Share what other areas of Fedora you are working in and your role in the
Project.
I have been an infrastructure-apprentice for a while. I also maintain Pulp's fedora
packages
3. What's your background and experience with dotnet?
I was an enterprise .NET/C# developer for five years before joining the Pulp project.
4. How can we can help YOU get started?
I've been in spec-file land lately playing with software collections in copr... so helping
out there is probably a good place to start.

Self introduction: tpokorra
by Timotheus Pokorra
Hello,
I am a member of the Mono SIG, and together with a couple of other
people we are maintaining Mono and depending packages in Fedora.
I got involved with Fedora in 2015, because I wanted an uptodate
version of Mono in CentOS...
I learned that I first have to help getting Mono uptodate in Fedora,
and then update it in Epel. This process is nearly finished, with the
Mono 4.2 packages available in epel-testing.
My motivation for Mono on Fedora/CentOS is OpenPetra [1], an open
source administration package (accounting, CRM, HR) for charities and
mission organisations. I am heavily involved in that project.
I assume that at some point OpenPetra will not depend on Winforms
anymore, but turn into a ASP like project. This is still far away, but
I am interested in dotnet core.
Also I see that more and more c# projects are using dotnet libraries
and msbuild, so I think we need to extend our support for that in
Fedora. Even MonoDevelop as a package goes into that direction [2].
I guess there is much common interest in the Mono SIG and Dotnet SIG,
and we will see how much overlap will exist.
Personally: I live in Plauen, Germany, was born in 1978, and just
became a father of a wonderful daughter 3 months ago :)
Looking forward to working with you,
Timotheus

Self Introduction: ttorling
by Tim Orling
Hi.
I've been involved with the Fedora Project since before Fedora Core even
existed. I am currently working on getting python3 support in EPEL6, just
because I found a need for it.
My two favorite languages are python and C#. I use so many others that I
can't even remember them all.
I'm quite involved with upstream IronPython [0] and plan to eventually
package IronPython [1] (and ironpython3 [2] when it is ready) for Fedora.
Also, come join us if you are interested [3]. We have a very active
community that has taken over development of this project.
Cheers.

Hi everyone! I'm Matthew Miller, currently the Fedora Project Leader.
I'm not a .NET or C# developer, but I'm very interested in having this
be available to people who want to work on or target Fedora, so I'm
here to watch.
