Thanks Bruno for the tip!

So, here goes an open request for sponsor. Is anyone interested in 
sponsoring me? I learn fast, so after the initial discussions I should 
be able to do things on my own. It won't be baby-sitting for too long!

My current Fedora activities include a "Ready for Wrangler" Fedora 
Scientific Spin [1] and i have few plans regarding the future trajectory 
of the SciTech SIG, which is where I intend to involve myself heavily. 
However, maintaining the "contacts" package looked an interesting place 
to begin!

My Fedora wiki page is at [2].

Many thanks in advance!
