Os Grupos de Interesses Especiais (Fedora Special Interest Groups ou SIGs) são equipes dentro do Projeto Fedora menos formais que os subprojetos oficiais. Os SIGs são algumas vezes um primeiro estágio no desenvolvimento de novos projetos dentro do Projeto Fedora.
Introdução a alguns SIGs
Ada
Os mantenedores dos pacotes Ada no Fedora são fortemente encorajados a afiliarem-se à lista de discussão Ada do Fedora. Qualquer um que esteja interessado também é bem-vindo a se afiliar.
Rádio Amador
O objetivo do grupo de Rádio Amador é de aprimorar a coleção do Fedora adicionando pacotes para operadores de rádio amador (Ham Radio) e SWLs.
Astronomia
O objetivo do grupo Astronomia do Fedora é de reunir pessoas interessas em aprimorar o suporte para astrônomos e astrofísicos.
Criação de Áudio
O nosso objetivo é fazer do Fedora a melhor plataforma free/open-source para produção musical baseada em computador, masterização de áudio, e edição de áudio.
Big Data
O SIG Big Data, no melhor estilo do Fedora, foca em fazer do Fedora a melhor plataforma para todas as coisas relacionadas ao Big Data.
Triagem de Bug
A Triagem de Bug do Fedora tenta gerenciar o fluxo dos relatos de bugs preenchidos contra outros projetos do Fedora. Eles estão para prevenir os outros membros do projeto de serem sobrecarregados por relatos de bugs, eliminando bugs triviais, removendo e corrigindo relatos inadequados ou falhos, e tendo certeza que os mantenedores estão aptos a realizarem as coisas.
Cloud
The Fedora Cloud SIG works to make Fedora successful on all major cloud platforms, public and private.
Desktop
The Desktop SIG strives to make Fedora a very good desktop distribution. The goal is to produce a more targeted desktop spin while maintaining traditional Fedora strengths such as security and commitment to free software. The Desktop SIG will develop and release the "Fedora Desktop" live CD
DotNet
The DotNet SIG is a group of Fedora contributors that maintain dotnet (and related) packages in Fedora. The goal of this group is to help to anyone interested in dotnet and to support others in creating and maintaining dotnet packages. Anyone interested in C# / dotnet is welcome!
Education
The mission of the Fedora Education SIG (Edu SIG) is to optimize Fedora for use by teachers and learners, both within and outside of the context of educational institutions.
We do this by building, maintaining, and evangelizing a strong ecosystem of educational packages within Fedora and by supporting learners in using these packages as tools to reach their curricular goals.
EPEL
EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) is targeted at filling the gap between the complete Fedora Collection and the packages that are maintained in Enterprise Linux. We are a community of individuals focusing on package maintenance and infrastructure to provide as many packages as possible to the consumers of Enterprise Linux. The EPEL SIG is led by a steering committee.
Erlang
The mission of the Erlang SIG is to encourage the packaging of Erlang projects in Fedora.
FLTG
FLTG (Fedora Language Testing Group) takes care of the Fedora testing activities: take initiative to conduct the Fedora test days, update necessary wiki pages, prepare test cases, get things coordinated and organized for the testers.
Fonts
The Fonts Special Interest Group is an informal group of Fedora Linux contributors. It is dedicated to improving fonts availability and text rendering/layouting in the distribution and its other Linux derivatives.

Any font or text-related activity can be tackled, as long as the result is free/libre and compatible with the Fedora objectives.
The current SIG task list is published here.
The Fonts SIG takes loving care of Fedora fonts. Please join this special interest group if you are interested in creating, improving, packaging, or just suggesting a font. Any help will be appreciated.
Formal Methods
"Formal methods" are techniques that use mathematics to prove that models of software, hardware, or systems will or will not have certain behaviors. To be practical, they must be automated using tools. The goal of the Formal Methods SIG is to make it easy to install formal methods tools in Fedora, ease learning how to apply them, encourage the development of "open proofs" (where an implementation, proofs, and required tools are all FLOSS), and to provide feedback to toolmakers so that the tools in Fedora can become more powerful, more scaleable, and easier to use together.
Games
Goal of Games SIG is to make Fedora the best Free software and open source gaming platform there is for both developers and users.
Geographic Information System
GIS is an initiative aimed to pack GIS technology related OSS in Fedora/EPEL and turn Fedora/EPEL to be the best chioce for a GIS platform.
Independent Software Vendor (ISV)
The ISV can be anything from a one- or two-man shop to a software design and development powerhouse. Fedora is a great platform for showing off your product, especially to community developers who might be interested in contributing code, plugins, or feedback.

Package Review
This SIG is currently in its infancy and things are still being organized. The job is to process new package review submissions and review them for quality and adherence to the Packaging Guidelines. As this is the initial experience for many new contributors to the Fedora Project, we also work towards making this procedure as enjoyable as possible. Anyone is welcome to join. Obviously it is necessary for one to already be a packager in order to review packages, but there are many tasks that can be done by anyone, and participation in the SIG is a good path to sponsorship.
Perl
This is a group devoted to packaging Perl modules and applications for Fedora.
PHP
To assist packagers in bringing PHP-related packages to Fedora and assisting in their continued maintenance by providing timely reviews, acting as secondary package owners and assisting with related security issues.
