Hi

I'd like to mentor Hussein (FAS: blinxen) in learning to become a packager. He is a work colleague of mine. In particular, he's helping me getting libimagequant updated, which some time ago was ported to rust. As such, I'd like to add him as a co-maintainer of libimagequant and help him getting the new dependencies reviewed. Is anyone willing to sponsor Hussein?

Thanks
Sandro

Hello everyone


This mail should serve as my self introduction to the devel community.

I am a (soon to be) computer science graduate, that has been working
in the Linux / open source world for about 6 years. I first started working
as a python developer in the GIS (geographic information system) domain.
After some time I also began to perform some system administration tasks.
And before I knew I started to do a bit of everything.
So to describe my current work, I do

- Python development
- System administration
- Kubernetes administration (or whatever you want to call it)
- A little bit of javascript
- Devops (Automatic deployments via CI / CD pipelines, mainly using Gitlab CI)

Oh, I also picked up rust a couple years ago and have been using it for Uni and
private projects.

Now the reason for why I want to get more involved in the Fedora package maintainer community is because I want to get a better understanding on how applications are packaged and
distributed to end-users in a secure and stable manner.
And from my experience, the best way to learn, is to get your hands dirty. Naturally, I also want to give back to the community, that has doing amazing work at developing Fedora and keeping everything working, and I want to become a part of it.


In the last week, I have been reading a lot of documentation on RPM packaging and I have created my first package. I am currently looking for a sponsor to help me with my first package review: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2154124


This concludes my introduction and I hope this was not too much to read :D


Best wishes
Hussein K.
