Hi all- I've been using Fedora for quite a few years as my main desktop OS, and I think it's time I contributed back by writing some packages. (Also, there are packages I want -- I might as well create them.) For my day job, I work at a trading company, writing algorithmic trading software. I dabble in quantum cryptography and occasionally even in classical cryptography. I'm also a sometime kernel hacker (with particular interest in the vDSO, timing, some arch stuff, and the bits of page cache that I can understand). I have two packages pending review: capnproto-c++: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1040243 capnproto is really neat. I expect that it will be the best (and maybe even the dominant) serialization format for new apps someday. I've talked to Kenton (i.e. the upstream) about this package, and he's happy about it as long as the packages track actual releases. fish: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974852 Fish is a nice shell. Christopher Meng has told me that he's happy with my taking over this package as long as I'm proactive about finding a sponsor. If anyone would be willing to sponsor me as a package maintainer, that would be great! Thanks, Andy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
