Hi,
Sam, there are no requirements as what you can achieve there and make progress there for Fedora & the design team. But you should have an eye on the costs and how the pertinece is corresponding what you can achieve there.2014-08-25 17:01 GMT+02:00 Samuel <just.sam@xxxxxxx>:
Hi,
it would be a great chance for me joining this FAD, but I was wondering
if there are any special requirements in order to participate apart from
being a team member and--naturally--interested in the proposed
activities.

> https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/report/1
>
>
> - Designers and other technical folks willing to play around / try out
> and evaluate different potential design team infrastructure tools and
> work out ways we can integrate them into our team moving forward. This
> might involve installing and playing with art boards, coming up with a
> SparkleShare workflow, or experimenting with Glitter Gallery or any
> other related kinds of tools that will help us store our assets and
> share our work with each other.
>
>
> - Anyone familiar with FAS to help us go through our membership list
> and clean out inactive members and tend to pending requests.
>
>
> - Designers and anyone else willing to participate in brainstorming a
> solution about Fedora's release artwork process.

> You can view our draft FAD proposal on the wiki:

> Please add your name as an interested participant and let us know your
> location / local airport so we can start putting together a full
> budget for this event.
