An existing Fedora packager to do a technical review the packaging according
to our packaging guidelines, which is a requirement for the packages to get
imported into Fedora.

Unfortunately, those are not quite the qualifications needed for the
reviewing part, but documentation writing is also a useful skill.

What you could do for the OpenChange feature in Fedora
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/OpenChange is write the "beats"
(text snippets) for the release notes (the one currently on the feature
page is quite minimalist, it's a single sentence). Samba4 could probably
also use such a feature page, you could write one (according to the same
template), then talk to the actual owner(s) of the feature (whoever will
actually package Samba4) about getting it run through the official feature
process.

And/or you could get in contact with Samba upstream and/or the Fedora
documentation team to write some documentation.
