• Why i choose Fedora?
  • Fedora is a great open source project, and in the past i had already work with rpm packaging to Fedora and Centos, in a project in University of Brasilia. Work in a GSOC project with the Fedora community is a great oportunity to learn more about it infraestructure, and lead with rpm packages. I had the desire to realy contribute with distributions that use the rpm package format, and Fedora was my primary choice.
