You are getting this email because you are in the 'fi-apprentice' group in the fedora account system (or are reading this on the infrastructure list).
Feel free to reply just directly to me, or cc the infrastructure list for everyone to see and comment on.

At the first of every month(or so), I am going to be sending out an email like this one. I would like feedback on how things are going for you.
I'd like to ask for everyone to send me a quick reply with the following data or anything related you can think of that might help us make the apprentice program more useful.
- Whats your fedora account system login?
offdutypirate
- Have you logged in and used your fi-apprentice membership to look at
our machines/setup in the last month? Do you plan to?
I have logged in a few times, just looking around.
- Has it helped you decide any area you wish to focus on or contribute
to more?
- Have you looked at or been able to work on any of the fi-apprentice
'easyfix' tickets? https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issues?status=Open&tags=easyfix
Have looked at them. Don’t feel I understand enough of the environment to contribute much yet.
- Do you still wish to be a member of the group? If not (for whatever
reason) could you provide any hints to help others down the road?
Yes.
- Is there any help or communication or ideas you have that would help
you do any of the above?
- What do you find to be the hardest part of getting involved?
Finding things to work on? Getting attention from others to help you? Finding tickets in your interest area?
Finding problems that are solvable with my limited understanding of the environment has been the most difficult. This just takes time and patience to get over though.
- Have you been able to make any weekly irc meetings? Do you find them
helpful or interesting?
- Have you logged into our Gobby instance and read/seen/added to our
meeting agenda? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Gobby
- What kinds of things do you look for in projects you contribute to?
Any other general feedback is also quite welcome, including improvements to this email, the wiki page, etc. Note that we recently revamped the getting started and other pages. Please do take a minute to re-read them and let me know if they are more clear or need further adjustments.
Any folks I do not hear from in the next week will be removed from the group. (Note that it's easy to be readded when you have time or whatever and it's nothing at all personal, we just want to keep the group up to date with active folks).
Thanks, and looking forward to your feedback!
