== About me ==


I've been a contributor to the Fedora Project since September 2015 and work in various places of the community. I'm currently an undergraduate student at [https://www.rit.edu/ Rochester Institute of Technology], majoring in [http://nsa.rit.edu/ Networking and Systems Administration] and minoring in [http://foss.rit.edu Free and Open Source Software]. I began using Linux (and Fedora) in December 2013 – Fedora 20 was my first Linux distribution. I am passionate about free and open source software, which is why I love one of Fedora's four foundations: ''Freedom''.
Since October 2022, I am the fourth and current [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/council/fca/ Fedora Community Architect] (FCA). Formerly known as FCAIC, and FCL before that. Naming things is hard. :-)


I'm generally idling somewhere on IRC around the clock (IRC: jwf), so if you see me, feel free to ping and say hi!
I am a Fedora Project contributor since September 2015. You can read more about my participation in Fedora [https://jwf.io/#fedora on my website]. I first used Linux (and Fedora) in December 2013.

In the 2010s, I used the Fedora Wiki as a virtual notebook (or "scratchpad") for miscellaneous ideas, thoughts, or concepts that needed refinement. They were related to Fedora in some way. They are preserved historically below:

About me

Since October 2022, I am the fourth and current Fedora Community Architect (FCA). Formerly known as FCAIC, and FCL before that. Naming things is hard. :-)

I am a Fedora Project contributor since September 2015. You can read more about my participation in Fedora on my website. I first used Linux (and Fedora) in December 2013. Fedora 20 was my first desktop Linux distro. You can find more about me and what I'm doing on my blog.

The best way to get in touch with me is either via email or Matrix (jflory7@fedora.im).


Scratchpad

In the 2010s, I used the Fedora Wiki as a virtual notebook (or "scratchpad") for miscellaneous ideas, thoughts, or concepts that needed refinement. They were related to Fedora in some way. They are preserved historically below:
