Dear Devel-List:
     Please consider this the initial introduction of myself as a
potential/future packager / co-maintainer.
     I have been "lurking" / using Fedora for the past 7 years when
Fedora 8 released.  I switched my workstation and server to CentOS
when Fedora 16 released, but continued to assist with Fedora QA
release testing and have enjoyed working with nirik, adamw, roshi,
robatino and crew.  I have personally found the tools of ffmpeg, vlc
and mythtv very useful given my busy schedule and limited time for
video entertainment.
      During the recent release of CentOS 7 I noticed that these
packages were not in my usual 3rd party repo, due in part to
supporting EPEL Packages not yet being branched.  This led to study of
mock / rpmbuild and eventually the Fedora Packager Page found at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers
.  I have not yet been chosen to co-maintain anything and I am not
sure what I will package if anything, but wanted to introduce so as I
monitor mailings and contribute reviews, people had some idea who Bob
Lightfoot {boblfoot} is.
       It has been some years {read 1985 - 1990} since I've used a
high level programming language {pascal, basic, rpg II} having focused
on Relay Ladder Logic and Assembly Language coding in my work life.  I
recently started working more with bash script and have dabbled with
perl and python but an no where near fluent in these key languages to
date.  We've come a long way since the old Trash 80's running basic,
but some things haven't changed.  Write clearly and document well
never go out of style.
         I hope get to know you better and be known better as I
journey into a value adding contributor.

Sincerely,
Bob Lightfoot
