Yes and yes.

No, I already knew what I'm interested in before becoming apprentice.

No, due to lack of time.

Yes, I do.

No, I can't think of anything.

In most cases fi-apprentice membership doesn't give enough permission to
work on particular problem. Most fixes are done by playbook changes and
it would be good if apprentices could at least run "ansible-playbook -C"
on their changed playbook before proposing patch. Another thing is no
access to machines of interest (like koji).

Yes, I either passively participate in the meeting or read logs
afterwards. They are definitely useful.
