Hi Benson,
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'll keep on reading the wiki until then. Enjoy your
holidays and Happy New Year!

Hi Alvin,
Welcome to Fedora marketing! Things are quiet this week due to Christmas and New Year
celebrations in some parts of the world. In marketing, we hope to get your journey off to
a great start. One of the roles is to provide material and information for ambassadors, so
linking between the two groups would be very helpful. We are likely to change the current
meeting time early next year - it is currently on Tuesdays from 9:00am to 10:00am US
eastern time, hope you can make it then.
Regards,
Benson

worked with the default drivers - I was finally able to begin my journey and start
learning after all these years.

think of anything! But I’ve been lurking at #fedora-admin to see if there’s anything I can
help with since I’m currently in Infrastructure related duties at work.

Ambassadors Project to try and share to others what Linux is, to not be scared of it, and
to learn it through the use of Fedora. It helped me improve my system administration
skills and confidence and I wanted to give back to the community that helped me achieve
that.

involved with Marketing as well since they go hand and hand. I would love to help as much
as I can but would probably like to work helping clean the wiki first. After a few weeks
of attending the meetings and hearing the events going on within Fedora, hopefully I’ll
learn enough to be able to branch off and help with other parts of Fedora’s marketing
strategies.
