Maybe I should file that as an enhancement? Definitely. I think we had some interface version coming, but unfortunately, we had to concentrate on privacy policy stuff for this coming release. There's a ticket open at https://fedorahosted.org/fas/ticket/4. basically, we want to give people a step-by-step wizard for getting involved. Here's my quick mental dump of steps so far (feel free to add ideas to the ticket): 0. Take a look at mailing lists and IRC channels, introduce yourself, get familiar with how they work. 1. Create account 2. Read welcome email, click confirm link 3. Change password 4. Fill in detailed account information 5. Sign CLA (may need to be made optional, as some accounts, like mirrormanager accounts, don't require it) 6. Depending on how each group does things, sign up for groups for tracking/access to stuff This is one of the reasons that I made that post on marketing-list about collecting contributor stories (https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-marketing-list/2008-June/msg00225.html) I'd like to see how people typically get involved, and see if we can make our processes fit how they work (it'd also be cool for marketing, both internally and externally). Thanks, Ricky
