About me
My first contact with GNU/Linux was when I was taking an IT essentials certification(2002). I must admit that it didn't catch me the first time. When I was working in IT support I had a case in which I was advised to try Linux to check if I that helped me to solve the issue.
I started with Ubuntu, and took some Linux certifications (basics, shell, servers) then I tried different Linux distributions until I reach Archlinux which I believe is an incredible distro that motivates users to learn how system works.
I moved on to Fedora because I needed a distribution in which I can work without spending much time configuring the system, provide a up to date and stable packages and also a community to be part of.
I've been using Fedora for a couple of months by now and I would like to give a something to it and the community. Live the core values that Fedora Project embrace and help to make better this project.
