Hello Clinton,
Fantastic introduction! We look forward to having you join our
community and our team and I am sure you will find it rewarding and a
great experience. We are currently working on a number of interesting
and cool projects, we are always open to new ideas and we have weekly
meetings on Thursdays at 17.00 UTC (Greenwich mean time). You can use
tools at timeanddate.com to convert it to your timezone. If you could
make it to this week's meeting I would love to have you talk about
yourself and your experience briefly and how you think we can help you
and vice-versa.
Whaddaya say?
Thanks,
Jack

To whom it may concern,
My name is Clinton Zeimet, and I am from Mason City, Iowa, in the
United States of America. I work for Target Corporation in Guest
Services, and also work as part time staff at The Music Man Square (a
local tourist attraction). I also serve as a volunteer coordinator
for the Iowa Independent Film Festival.
My goal in the Fedora Project is to participate on a more active level
in the marketing of this wonderful operating system and its vibrant
community. I would like to engage in formal public discourse as an
official ambassador to deliver an enthusiastic and project-aligned
messaging to the public. I believe that as general computer users
experience the marvelous advantages of the Fedora Operating system and
its accompanying community, they will likely become as joyful as I to
experience an alternative to the status quo disappointments of its
closed source relatives. I would like to see usage of the Fedora OS
and participation in the Fedora Project to extend further into the
greater public consciousness of my locale region, and also
internationally. I would also like to see Fedora and the Fedora
Project become ever more attuned to the practicable needs and wants of
the general computer user like me.
As a former children's camp counselor and current guest services
specialist and event coordinator, I believe I have the proven ability
to deliver the Fedora marketing package in an effective manner. In
addition, my experience as a local contributor to the U.S.
presidential campaign of Howard Dean in 2004 acclimated me to the
practical organizational challenges of marketing and its accompanying
intangible rewards. I also have experience in team sports, theatrical
productions, speech contests, writers workshops, and student
government and peer counseling positions that have prepared to be an
effective group participant and team player. Other than these skills,
it should be known that I have no formal marketing education at the
college level.
I also have the native attributes of intellectual curiosity and above
average ability in verbal and quantitative performance, which I would
like to employ to learn more technical Linux skills as time goes on.
Thank you for considering me to join the Fedora Project in a more
active manner that will match my enthusiasm and abilities.
Sincerely,
Clinton Zeimet
