Hi Everyone,
Sorry for the two week gap since my last report, we had a busy time in the CPE team with the new fedora accounts deployment, our quarterly planning cycle started for Q2 and Ireland had a bank holiday mid week which *seemed* like a great idea at the time. Until no-one knew what day it was for about a week!
So here I am, right at the end of Q1 with the CPE teams final weekly report for January, February and March... two days early :)

## Initiative FYI Links CPE had our quarterly planning call last Thursday 26th March to prioritize our project work going into Q2 (quarter 2, which is April, May & June). Our initiative repo quarterly boards have been updated https://pagure.io/cpe/initiatives-proposal/boards/2021Q2 and our repo can be accessed here: https://pagure.io/cpe/initiatives-proposal Our 2021 Quarterly Planning timetable can also be viewed here if you are curious on when our next quarterly planning session is: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/time_tables/ And finally, details on initiative requesting/how to work with us on new projects here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/initiatives/
Going into Q2, the CPE team will work on rpmautospec https://pagure.io/cpe/initiatives-proposal/issue/11 and aim to deliver this project within the months of April, May & June. We are starting this project on Monday 12th April and will keep you posted on where the team will track work and what IRC channel they will use for comms.
You can also expect a Q1 blog post from us in the next week or two highlighting the work that the team delivered over the last quarter too.

## Team Info ### Background: The Community Platform Engineering group, or CPE for short, is the Red Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS. Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained, build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated time than volunteers can give.
See our wiki page here for more information:https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/
As always, feedback is welcome, and we will continue to look at ways to improve the delivery and readability of this weekly report.
Have a great weekend!
Aoife
