Hi again Richard! Sure thing, I've now done one informal review here on another
Python package:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1268380#c2

I'll try to do a few more reviews in the coming days. If you have a review of
my review, that would be helpful (and meta!)

I do work as a full time Python developer so Python is my strength these days.
In the past I have also done work in C/C++, Java, and PHP. I would not rate my
Java or PHP knowlege to be current enough to be very useful, but I am still
pretty good in C/C++ land.

One of my long term goals for wanting to join the Fedora project is getting my
full time project included in Fedora:

http://www.pulpproject.org/

It is also a Python project, and I suspect that you might cringe if you saw
it's current spec file ☺ It's a pretty complicated project with quite a few
packages (it's a distributed system) so I didn't want to use it as my first
package review. Once I gain some more experience I'd love to get it included in
Fedora. We currently host our own repository for Fedora on
repos.fedorapeople.org/pulp. I also happen to know that Fedora has some
interest in possibly using Pulp to manage some of their systems so it may be
beneficial to the project itself.

I also have side interests in network security and scientific computing. My
C/C++ experience is from my graduate studies as a computational
electromagnetism scientist. I've also done some work in natural language
processing with both Python and C++ in the past.

As far as co-maintaining packages, I'd love to help in that way. I don't know
of any specific package that both needs a co-maintainer and happens to be a
package that I have extensive knowledge of, but I am willing to learn. Do you
have a suggestion that might fall into my areas of knowledge?

Thanks again for your guidance!
