At fudcon this last weekend we identified some major items we want to
work on.

They are mostly 'fix all the stuff we have running'

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Cleanup_Tasks_2011

items on that list are a big deal to me. Get them clean, get things
straight, make progresss.

come by #fedora-admin and ping me or ricky or smooge or abadger1999 or
codeblock for help.
