Fedora infrastructure

Please pardon my still learning questions as I have never been involved 
with a software project that involved a large number of people before.

I have seen various e'mails on this list that mentioned Pull Requests 
and Tickets. I was curious about these things and so I started reading 
about them.

 From what I read about Pull Requests, they are used by developers to 
essentially submit something for review, inclusion in a build or 
compose. Such submissions could be for fedora and accompanying 
applications or for fedora infrastructure. To use Pull Requests you have 
to get set up with GitHub and clone the fedora stuff on your PC. Then 
you pick something to work on. When you're at a point where you what to 
at least get some comments on what you've done, you submit a Pull 
Request. If I have this wrong or incomplete please point me to where I 
should read more.

Then I got curious about infrastructure; so I started reading about 
fedora infrastructure. From what I've read the infrastructure term is 
used to refer to the servers, networks, and websites that all the fedora 
teams use to accomplish their fedora related work. I also thought this 
might include the various build, compose, test procedures, and test 
software used, but that wasn't clear to me. If I have this wrong or 
incomplete please point me to where I should read more.

Then I read some about Tickets. From what I read, Tickets are the 
vehicle used for report infrastructure bugs, problems or suggestions for 
enhancement. From the e'mails I have seen on this list they also seem to 
be used by teams to act as reminders for team members to do things. To 
write or edit a Ticket Pagure seems to be used. I browsed the projects 
in Pagure and you really need to know exactly which project to use 
before you go there. If I have this wrong or incomplete please point me 
to where I should read more.


	Have a Great Day!
