Hi, I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and offer my services to the Fedora community. Having spent 4 years working in IT in the motorsport industry, generally doing all sorts from Linux HPC Administration to SAN Administration to Network Administration, I fancied a career change and now work as an EMC SAN Administrator Symmetrix & Clariion) in the public sector here in the UK, which is where I have been for over a year and a bit. I've been a Linux enthusiast since 1998, first distro was RH5. Since then I've used SuSE -> Debian -> Gentoo -> Fedora. I've used Fedora on and off since FC4, but have now settled for FC6 (soon to be Fedora 7) as the OS of choice on my workhorse laptop. IMHO Fedora is the most polished and mature distribution available. I only use Windows when I really have to... :-) The articles I would like to see written about or hopefully write about if given the opportunity are :- - iSCSI - AoE - SAN Boot (FC & iSCSI) - MPIO - Volume Management (PVM2, EVMS etc.) - File Systems - Benefits of each, performance tweaks etc. (Reiser, ext3, JFS, XFS etc.) - Open Source Backup Software - What's out there? Comparison between them etc. - File replication software etc. to name a few... I have never worked directly with a distribution before, other than contributing via forums. I am however one of a rare breed of people who actually enjoys writing technical documentation & procedures. This is something that I have done pretty much every day of my working life, some people shy away from doing documentation, I'm the opposite. I find it very rewarding when others learn from shared knowledge. I'm not a programmer. I'm a Sys Admin. I cannot profess to know anything other than bash shell scripting. I do however have good people skills and a talent to pick up new things. I'm enthusiastic about Open Source Software, and I feel that this and the other qualities I have mentioned make me an ideal candidate. To conclude it would be exciting to be able to contribute or give back to a (Linux) community that brings so much to the table. Thanks, Matt
