Identify a need: "j.fp.o doesn't really get people to join fedora." > I've always found one of the biggest problems with joining is setting expectations, fedora is a HUGe place. I think people get lost and don't know what we expect from them. This is especially true of more passive volunteers that just want to be told what to do. I've found they don't know what to do, don't enjoy being told what to do and generally don't have a good experience after joining. -Mike -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list
