Hi welcome!

So sorry for the delay, I have no idea how your email fell off the
radar but that's my bad.

That's wonderful news. Welcome to all the Fedora things! :)

Composing by hand is something we're actively working to get out of
the business of doing. There's plenty of work going on that we're
tracking in a kanban board here:

If you would like to, we have an upcoming rel-eng meeting

That's almost right on point but Fedora RelEng does the composes for
Fedora QA nightly and for special occasions (think Test Days) just
because of the breadth of the systems it touches to perform a compose
and the signing necessary.

I'll follow up on irc about our group meetings and such.
