Hello, admins and members of Fedora Infraestructure Team.
My name is Henderb Rodriguez, Electronics Engineer, 36 years old, from Venezuela.
I like to join this team in order to collaborate on development, documentation, and translation to Spanish (my native language) of the great Fedora OS and webpages/wikis related to it.
I have experience working on projects involving SQL programming, application GUI, web development, even some drivers since more than 15 years.
Among my skills (obtained from paid jobs) are:
C development. SQL development (Sybase). Object Oriented Programming (QNX AppBuilder). GUI to DB applications (at SIDOR, iron processing company) Shell script programming (I was teacher of a course about "HP-UX Basic Shell Scripting"). Datacenter Helpdesk Level 2 Unix/Linux Support (this was applied to "Movistar de Venezuela" through Huawei Technologies). Virtualization (primarily with Virtualbox) OS installation, configuration and administration (Windows, Linux, Unix). DNS management. Firewall configuration.
I have worked on servers from various vendors and families, like HP Proliant and BladeSystem, Sun SPARC and Blade, and MSC-S Ericsson servers, running several Unix flavors, like HP-UX, Sun Solaris, RHEL, etc.
I would like to learn new programming languages, new technologies on security, networking, and web development, improve on english technical writing and translation to spanish.
This is the first time i try to get into an open source project and community, and i want to work with the community that creates the wonderfull Fedora OS, that i am using on my home workstations since Fedora 18. I have one multiseat workstation with two seats (for wife and kids), and another workstation for my personal use, they both using Fedora 20.
I saw several tickets with easyfix mark, as the Ticket #3536 - "Add place for raw HTML content for fedorahosted project", that i could have work on it, but of course you maybe could suggest me another that could better fit with my experience.
I think i can easy invest 6-10 hours/week to contribute to team assignments. I am trying now to make a name as freelancer on odesk on my spare time too.
With best regards,
Henderb Rodriguez Freenode IRC handle: henderbj
