Hello, I posted a question on the freenode IRC and didnt recieve an answer
because there wasn't a lot of poeple around at the time so I figured I'd
send it here. I'm not really experienced with mailing lists but if you
think my question is pertinent for a next mailing feel free to include it
in there.

The question goes as followed and thanks for any answers :-)


<Justiceh> hello all
<Justiceh> I have a question for anybody that can answer me. I am a Linux
user for about 3 years now. I know my way around repos and pretty much
everything an everyday user faces in terms of troubles/troubleshooting to
commands and packages. Although I stepped on Fedora for the reason that I
see great potential to help here as the project is very open and community
oriented. I've been looking for informations everywhere on what I'd like to
do
<Justiceh> and I found that I'd very much like to improve Fedora with their
coding. Although I'm french and master my language pretty well, I'd like to
contribute to code. Fedora (from what I saw) does not really work on their
own Kernel developpement but seem to be centralised on what goes on top of
it
 <Justiceh> now I'm wondering where I should start in the different coding
aspects of Fedora to build experience and confidence to tackle bigger
matters.
<Justiceh> I have to tell.. I have no experience (if basic) in any
languages as for writing code but I fiddled a bit with HTML back on
enigmagroup.org's website where I found that reading and working with code
was very very satisfying for me (all the challenges and stuff like that) I
was learning a lot
<Justiceh> So ULTIMATLY haha... my question is : where should I start in
terms of : languages, projects, mentorship to get to my rank of Jedi master
after a couple years.
<Justiceh> my intestests are : Engeneering, Infrastructure, bug fixing/bug
tracking, Package management and testing
<Justiceh> I will wait for any answers :-) and thanks for reading my post
