Self Introduction: Jeff Schroeder

[Jeff Schroeder]

Hello Fedora Peeps,

My name is Jeff (fas: sejeff; github: SEJeff) and I've been a
user/contributor to Fedora for some time now. My first contribution to
Fedora was a Rhythmbox Bluecurve Theme[1] around 2005. Professionally, I'm
a systems automation engineer and have packaged rpms as part of my work
duties as far back as 2006. I'm an avid desktop Linux user and am a
co-maintainer of 2 somewhat well known open source projects saltstack's
salt[2] and graphite[3]. I'm also a gnome.org sysadmin team alumni but
haven't been very active the last 2 years due to work commitments.

I'd like to become a Fedora packager for a few reasons that seem worth
explaining here. First off, I'd like to be able to yum install both serf[4]
and consul[5]. Secondly, as a co-maintainer of the graphite-project, I'd
like to ensure the newest graphite bits are available in Fedora and
eventually in EPEL. I know we've had a lot of users who struggled
installing graphite-web and the cairos / pycairos dependencies on RHEL. I'd
like to fix this by ensuring the necessary stuff is in EPEL so they can yum
install it all.

Thought I should say hi per the wiki docs.
