No problem, each one can contribute also without any introduction. It's
required only in the joining process.
I saw you posts in the magazine; good job! Thank you very much

There's no need to have background or specific skills, no worries.

Cool, I think you don't need any explanation about the content
creation, so if you wanna know more about the world around the
magazine, please refer to these pages [1][2]
I see you already joined our IRC channel, so nothing else to say except
that we have a ticketing system for assign tasks [3], feel free to file
a ticket for requests.
At the moment we're working on the tasks in order to be ready for the
next fedora release [4].
I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting something important, but if you have any
question, you can ask in the IRC channel.

One of the marketing tasks is to work with ambassadors; being
ambassador allows you to organize events, in accordance with your
region.
Welcome on board Justin!
See you soon.
