Easyfix + WhatCanIDoForFedora
by Brian Exelbierd 04 Oct '18

04 Oct '18

I started writing this a while ago and never got it fully formed. Rather than let it keep rotting in my drafts folder I wanted to share it and see if it made sense to anyone else. Warning - rough edges ahead! --- Conversations with several people have resulted in distilling the following idea: = EasyFix == Changing metadata Modify the table that drives fedoraproject.org/easyfix that is located at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Easyfix The table would now include two additional columns (optional) Col 1 = existing reference to the issue tracker. We should consider adding gitlab.com support Col 2 = existing point of contact Col 3 = category of task (documentation, infrastructure, programming-Haskell, programming-Ruby, etc.) Col 4 = SIG/WG/etc. this project is related too (Design, Council, KDE, etc.) == Changing fedoraproject.org/easyfix Today we show only two categories: Issues from Pagure/Github and Bugzillas I believe those categories are not the right categories for consumers of the page. Using the new category (col 3) above, we would break things out by the kind of contribution. This would serve to let people browse related tasks more easily and to reduce the overwhelming nature of the current lists. For BZs we are either going to have to guess based on BZ metadata or leave them lumped together. = WCIDFF WCDIFF should be extended to show the categories and groups appropriate for the various endpoints. This way the person who navigates WCDIFF has the option of reading a specific task they could work on right now, if they so desire. = Marketing/Promotion The categories give us the opportunity to promote our easyfixes as a great way to join or contribute in a targeted manner. This could come in the form of articles, tweets, or live conference appearances. What do people think? regards, bex

Thanks for your patience on a reply. Welcome to the Fedora Project! We're happy to have you here with us. It sounds like you have a solid background in infrastructure management and IT. Have you considered checking out the Infrastructure Apprentice program? It seems like the opportunities to contribute there are more in line with your skills. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/GettingStarted https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Apprentice I've added the Fedora Join mailing list to this reply. If you have further questions about getting involved and making a first contribution, I recommend asking there. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/fedora-join.lists.fedoraproject… Hoping to see you around in the community! -- Cheers, Justin W.

Nice to meet you all! > Hi Pritam! Welcome to the Fedora Project community. We're happy to have you here! By the sounds of your experience, you're working with a lot of tools and languages that are being used inside of Fedora Infrastructure applications, or even the infrastructure itself. Have you given any thought to getting involved with the Infrastructure team? They have an apprenticeship program to help new folks get involved and contributing. More information is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/GettingStarted https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Apprentice Additionally, you may find WhatCanIDoForFedora.org a helpful resource for learning more about the Fedora Project and its community. There are several different ways to get involved, but it's best to find a place to contribute that is something you think you will enjoy. https://whatcanidoforfedora.org/ Also, I've added the Fedora Join mailing list to this reply. If you need more help getting involved or have questions about making your first contribution, this is the best place to go and ask. You can subscribe there to continue the conversation: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/fedora-join.lists.fedoraproject… Hoping to see you around in the Fedora community! :-) -- Cheers, Justin W.

Welcome aboard to the Fedora Project. Happy to have you here! For your issue with mirroring your display to a television, I would recommend reaching out in a user support channel for help on how to do this. You can use IRC (#fedora on Freenode IRC), Telegram (https://t.me/fedora) or the users mailing list: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users.lists.fedoraproject.org/ As far as getting involved, have you seen WhatCanIDoForFedora.org? This can be a helpful place to start for finding out what kind of opportunities there are for getting involved with Fedora. https://whatcanidoforfedora.org/ If you have specific questions after that, the Join SIG can help you get started and point you at the right place to go. I've CC'd their mailing list on this reply, but you can also subscribe here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/fedora-join.lists.fedoraproject… Hoping to see you around the community! -- Cheers, Justin W.
