Introduction
Fedora user since, well, Red Hat Linux 6.2. Active Fedora Contributor since 2007, but my roles have changed a few times over the years. Currently, I'm evolved in cloudy matters (mostly Fedora cloud images and OpenStack).
Activities and Roles
In one word, my activities and roles are ever-changing. Both my professional and my private interests have shifted a few times and I try to only stick with a role for as long as I seem to add value to the Fedora Project, Working Group or Special Interest Group. Also, my time is limited and therefore I sometimes have to set priorities. So my current and former activies and roles include:
- Contributor to various OpenStack-related efforts both up- and downstream (RDO, Packstack, Puppet-OpenStack, QA)
- Contributor to the Fedora Cloud Image (mostly QA and some experience-sharing)
- Member of the Fedora Cloud SIG (mostly through the above two points)
- Occasionally still active in former roles (doing package reviews, promotion at events / spreading the word about Fedora, QA, etc.)
- Former member of the QA team, mainly involved in release QA
- Former Proven Tester, mostly reacting to somewhat important requests in #fedora-qa or on the test list
- Former Package Maintainer of several small packages - one left over
- Former founding member of the Community Working Group (CWG), left after the Code of Conduct (CoC) and the CoC Enforcement were approved
- Former Fedora Ambassador, still often seen at events
- Former member of the infrastructure team, doing rather unimportant, small tasks regarding Fedora Hosted
