However not sure how active this SIG is. It's very active :D I'd note that the Join SIG only provides general guidance to newcomers to help them find the right team/SIG/area to participate in. Since each team/SIG tends to have its own requirements and on-boarding/sponsorship process, the newcomer will still have to engage with the team to participate (or get sponsored in the case of the package maintainers team). If more package maintainers (and dev folks generally) can join the Join SIG and help newcomers along, that'll be great. The idea is to get newcomers better acquainted with the existing community so that they're comfortable and confident enough to participate. The process we have in place is noted here: https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Welcome-to-Fedora Basically, we get folks to create a Fedora account and then we file a first "Welcome to Fedora" ticket for them where we provide them with initial information about how Fedora is organised and what our foundations are and so on. Then we help newcomers find the area/team/SIG they'd like to work in and we guide them to joining it. To join the Join SIG, you can just say "hello!" in a ticket here and someone will add you to the Pagure and FAS groups so you get notifications on new Welcome to Fedora tickets and so on. https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/new_issue -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
