I tried to connect to the server but I got a problem with the credentials and I just ask in the IRC
channel but I haven´t found the solution.

The hardest part of getting involved is see where you can help,
I can see that there is so much work to do but before to start to help
I need to be involved with the projects and that´s what I´m currently doing.

map, big picture, server list, etc. of fp.o.
The intent is to help show
1) How fp.o is laid out logically, connectively, and geographically.
2) What are all the pieces in the big picture and what they do. This part
includes a (very) short description of what each type of server does and
(hopefully) a link to something within the fp.o wiki/docs that has all of
the details.
Yes, but even the "easyfix" tickets were more than I could dive into

Absolutely.

onboarding of newbies needs improvement. Hopefully, my project (in #2
above) will help with some of that.
The absolute biggest problem is getting enough hours to do this. (36-hour

days and quitting my paying job are the best solutions, but neither is
particularly practical. :) )
>From a realistic point of view, the hardest part at the beginning was (and
still is) how fp.o is organized (not people-organized, but
system-organized)... what does the fp.o environment look like? Working on
my project (in #2 above) is helping me see this.
The other notable challenge is all of the terminology, acronyms, and
shorthand I see used on the IRC channels. I know from job experience that
this type of thing just happens when the long-timers (lifers?) are so
familiar with it all ... and it's just a matter of time and research to
fill in some gaps.
Yes, even to the point of rearranging my work schedule to be able to attend

them from home. (I probably can't reach IRC from the office, but it also
gives me a dedicated block of time to spend on FP.)
They are definitely interesting and somewhat helpful. Still being a
newbie, I don't understand everything going on and the meetings are a
combination of help and confusion.
(This wasn't on last month's list. :) )

I don't know if I can name just one. Several of my favories include most
(but not all) of the Star Trek movies... Spaceballs... Hunt for Red
October... Hudson Hawk... most (all?) of the official Bond franchise...

connected together better. I'm thinking of making this my next project,
considering that I'm still very much behind the (learning) curve in being
readily able to provide any technical help.
