Contributing Roles in the Infrastructure Project
These are only suggestions for contributing roles. Only your imagination sets the limits.
About Us
The Infrastructure Team consists of dedicated volunteers and professionals who provide servers, tools and utilities for the Fedora Project. We are the people that maintain the servers that run the Fedora Project and create new applications to make development of Fedora a smoother process. We're located all over the globe and communicate primarily by IRC and our mailing list.
IRC
You can find the #fedora-admin channel on freenode . We also hold weekly meetings in #fedora-meeting each Thursday at 19:00 UTC. See the Meetings page for details and historical archives.
Mailing list
The mailing list for the Fedora Infrastructure project is: infrastructure@lists.fedoraproject.org .
Fedora is known for using and creating new technologies, the Infrastructure team often uses these technologies. As such we are always interested in discussing these technologies academically and theoretically.
