Starting point

[Amitakhya Phukan]

Hi,

I want to take part as a SysAdmin in Fedora project. Please let me know
where I can start and how I start contributing. I had a few starts earlier
(3-4 years back) but could not continue further due to work pressure. I
from India (GMT+0530). IRC Nick is amitphukan on #freenode. I am generally
on #fedora, #fedora-admin, #fedora-devel among many others.

Kind regards,
Amitakhya.

Welcome (back). ;) 

If you haven't yet, please read: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/GettingStarted

and we can get you setup in the apprentice group if you are interested
in the sysadmin side of things, or point you to some easyfix tickets in
the programming space.

Thanks Kevin.

I am interested in sysadmin side of things and apprentice group sounds
right to me. The whole point of joining Fedora Sys Admin group would be to
learn and contribute all along. So I am ready to be put up in any group you
prefer to put me in. Please let me know how to proceed.

Best,
Amit.

Great. Catch me or any of the other apprentice sponsors on
#fedora-admin on irc and we can get you setup. ;)

Could not catch you in the IRC !! Maybe because of the different time zones
that we are in. I am interested in basic system administration and web
hosting. Can you suggest me anything here or maybe you can set me up with
some one ? I don't know of any other apprentice sponsor.

Hi Amitakhya,

What times UTC would you be available to meet up. I can switch my
schedule to do that for a day or two.

Sorry, you seem to be around at a time when I am sleeping. ;( 

See if you can meet up with Smooge... if not, we can get you added to
the apprentice group to start looking around in any case.

Ok I will be able to meet with you on Tuesday at 0530 UTC. (Monday
would be Sunday my time and I have a commitment already for most of
the day). If I am not around, Ricky Elrod, CodeBlock on irc, will be
able to help you also. I am sponsoring you into the Fedora
Infrastructure Apprentice group so you can log into various machines
this weekend if you have time to look around. I will find the
documents for you to read and send them in a seperate email.
