Some are obvious, the others may surprise you > ;) Although I may not have all the deep technical knowledge of some FESCo members, I'd be willing to serve in this capacity. I do have experience working with different groups in Fedora, including the Board and FESCo, and release related groups like Rel-Eng, Docs, L10n, and Websites. I also manage the team in Red Hat that supports our infrastructure and applications. That could come in handy in helping the Council direct resources to work on the priorities needed for Fedora to succeed. However, I want to be clear that my being involved is *not* a pre-requisite for that support. I would expect to support Matthew and the Council regardless. I'm sure there are other worthy candidates, and I'd work with any of them who fill this role. -- Paul W.
