Hi Vincent!
I'm glad you want to contribute, however, unfortunately the docs
project doesn't maintain the Wiki (I know, it's a bit
counterintuitive). We take care of content on the docs portal
(https://docs.fedoraproject.org/). The Wiki, content-wise, doesn't
actually "belong" to any one group - people get edit rights
automatically when they join any group as contributors, be it
docs, marketing, a technical SIG...
If you're only interested in contributing to the Wiki, then please see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Help:Editing#Gaining_Edit_Access - especially point 3. Basically you should open a ticket for infra to get access if you don't want to get involved in any other aspect of Fedora right now.
If you change your mind and decide you want to contribute to the
docs published on docs.fp.o, let me know. (Note that not all of
these docs are maintained by us either; the Docs Project actively
maintains the portal and some of the docs listed under User Docs,
the rest is split among various groups maintaining their own docs
repos and we make sure they're published and provide help if
needed.)
Cheers,
Petr
Hi everyone,
I've created a new FAS account last week as I am interested in fixing up/contributing things on the Fedora wiki. Once my account has been created, I was told I need sponsorship to get out of the 'CLA+1' category so here I am (thanks to Pierre-Yves Chibon for the confirmation on the process!).
I have been using Linux for quite some time now (2001): I started with Debian and then Gentoo Linux, then Mandrake and Ubuntu. I have been using Fedora for ~5 years now and I love it (a great mix of current and sleek software along with stability).
I have been wanting to contribute back in one form or the other for some time, usually I report bugs or fix documentation as a start (hence the introduction on this list :). I love free/libre software and think it is very important in the SW/freedom ecosystem.
Skillset-wise, I work as an embedded computing engineer. I have worked on RTOSes as well as certification projects (DO-178C like). I know C/assembly and OSes but also Python as well as cloud-related technologies (having worked on Kubernetes/Docker/Helm and AWS/GCP). I am currently doing infrastructure/container work (another great reason I like Fedora!) around Automotive Grade Linux projects. I am also fond of maker-related technologies like 3D printing.
I am now back on the CEST zone, after living for several years in the US (PDT/San Francisco). As I said, so far, I am interested in fixing pages I use on the wiki for typos/inacurracies/etc.
Thanks for reading and have a great day everyone!
Best,
Vincent
PS: I have noted the bits about my GPG key and I am working on it. Will post a followup when this is done.
