We're glad to have you on board. I've got a little bit of some of the cool things happening with the Fedora Jam lab, and I think showing off the great things inside of it would be awesome. In December, we had an article go out that highlighted the Security Lab, and looking at metrics for the Security Lab, downloads actually *spiked* notably after it was published. It would be awesome to see if we can help do the same thing with Fedora Jam lab. Beyond just the Jam lab, it would be awesome to help tell about working with audio in Fedora too. Any articles about software you're experienced with or use often would be great as well! Just one thing to keep in mind, like Sylvia mentioned, articles that go out on the Magazine shouldn't greatly depend on software that isn't in the Fedora repos or is non-free software. If it's a minor detail, we can "point" elsewhere for a guide, but if it's crucial for getting it to work, it might be better on a personal blog. Hope this info helps, really looking forward to seeing what you pull together! Once you have a draft ready for review, drop a line to the list and we'll help get it reviewed, make a featured image, and get it published. Thanks! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7@xxxxxxxxx
