Hi, My name is Romain Geissler, and usually my accounts are suffixed by the "1A" string which in the travel/airline industry is the code designating my employer: Amadeus. I am new in this journey of maintenance of Fedora/EPEL packages, but recently I have been involved a bit in creating bugzillas for the different packages we do install in our container images in my company. Right now we do use (mainly) UBI/RHEL 9 based containers and I wish to push our workloads to use more recent UBI/RHEL 10 containers (even though I know it’s still in beta phase right now). Then quickly enough, creating bugzillas was not enough, I had to submit couple of very basic pull requests to fix some FTBS or ignore some missing test or documentation dependencies on EPEL side. This activity has been noticed, I was suggested that maybe I should go one step further and ask to enter the packager group, so here I am. About my background, I have been working for Amadeus for more than a decade, initially focused on developing our own proprietary C++ applicative framework. Over time my focus moved more into providing Amadeus developers tools to be able to build/test/deploy their own code, both locally and inside CI/CD. Most of the things we work on are Linux based, we used to have a diversity of distros in use but now we try to rationalize all this and converge to RHEL-based containers or bare metal machines, thus our need for EPEL packages. We do have obviously a contract with Red Hat, so I am from time to time in contact with upstream developers paid by Red Hat for the most important tools we use (podman & other container tools, gnu/llvm toolchain), who usually happen to be Fedora/EPEL packagers too. I am also part of the Amadeus "lobbyists" trying to push our company to contribute more to open source, after having been a consumer of open source for couple of decades, it’s time for us to invest part of our money into giving back. ;) Cheers, Romain -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
