You are getting this email because you are in the 'fi-apprentice' group in the fedora account system. When you reply, please include your fedora account system login.
Additionally, this month, I am CC'ing the infrastructure list. If you would like to send your feedback there as well everyone can see and comment on it.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Apprentice
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.
0. Whats your fedora account system login?
1. Have you logged in and used your fi-apprentice membership to look at our machines/setup in the last month? Do you plan to?
2. Has it helped you decide any area you wish to focus on or contribute to more?
3. Have you looked at or been able to work on any of the fi-apprentice 'easyfix' tickets? https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/report/14
4. 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?
5. Is there any help or communication or ideas you have that would help you do any of the above?
6. 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?
7. Have you been able to make any weekly irc meetings? Do you find them helpful or interesting?
8. What do you use to read your email?
Any other general feedback is also quite welcome, including improvements to this email, the wiki page, etc.
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!

yes n yes
- Has it helped you decide any area you wish to focus on or contribute

yes, I will be contributing more on apps side.
- Have you looked at or been able to work on any of the fi-apprentice
'easyfix' tickets? https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/report/14
mm, the task I am working on started as a simple "improve" latency/performance of askbot which evolved into upgrade 0.7.49 which became packaged 0.7.49. I am mostly done, now only packaging and testing on fedora/rawhide is left. Its done for epel. I vent been able to spend much time on it last few weeks. Have just been doing something like 4 hours a week.
- Do you still wish to be a member of the group? If not (for whatever

yes

Finding things to work on? Getting attention from others to help you? Finding tickets in your interest area?
- Have you been able to make any weekly irc meetings? Do you find them
helpful or interesting?
yes . helps to know what others are doing and whats happening in the apps world.
- What do you use to read your email?
mostly browser/laptop and mobile.
Any other general feedback is also quite welcome, including improvements to this email, the wiki page, etc.
How about pairing apprentices up? Nothing mandatory , but this would help new folks to discover more stuff and help each other? I discovered the whole mock / bodhi / koji infra only when I had to pack. And can help new folks with it now.
Also would help us to retain more folks around. Of the last two months I ve been here, I think I ve seen few of the apprentices repeatedly in the meetings atleast..
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).

For the record, for every update so far, I have usually tried it in Fedora first, test it for a while and then commit and build it for Fedora and if things work out well, test and commit it in EPEL, moving into staging and then production. Atleast during the initial period when we adopted askbot, there were a lot more bugs that we reported upstream and got fixed. Things seems to be more stable now atleast for our needs (though certainly not bug free) and it might useful to follow a consistent strategy. Thanks for helping out!

It's an interesting thought... one problem is that people are in so many different timezones, so finding someone to pair up with could be complicated by that.
Perhaps we could ask in the beginning of the meeting if there's any folks that would like to pair up?
