Self introduction/GSoC '17

Hello everyone!
My name is Vinayak Agarwal. I am a Computer Science student currently pursuing Bachelors. I would like to be participate in this group.

I have experience in python. Last year I did a python development internship also. I've used various distributions of Linux over the years.

I have experience in developing web, mobile, desktop, writing scripts,  I recently started learning kernel development with the help of eudyptula-challenge. Last year, I made a few contributions to Gnome and Firefox. I also know C, C++, Java, R and C#.

I would some assistance in getting started in contributing to Fedora.

I was looking at the project idea 'Integration between package managers: dnf pip plugin' and was quite interested in the same. I wrote a basic script to emulate the functionality.

Could someone please guide me on how to go ahead?

Thanks
Vinayak Agarwal

You can start by creating an account in Fedora Account System at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/

You can start hanging out in #fedora-python @ freenode and checking the dnf
repositories at https://github.com/rpm-software-management/ (is this
moving to pagure?)

While at IRC, you can also ping the guys in the channel to get more
information on the project.

Now, if you also want to know other areas of the project, you can also
check https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join

Welcome :)
