  1. As a Fedora contributor you must have a Fedora Account System (FAS) account, have signed the contributor agreement (CLA), and be a member of at least one other group in FAS.
    2. + +
  2. Start by logging in to your fedorapeople.org account. You must be using the SSH key [[Infrastructure/fedorapeople.org|that you uploaded into the FAS]], and your userspace is created the first time you log in: +
    ssh accountname@fedorapeople.org
    3. +
  3. Note: It may take an hour for the server to sync your uploaded public key and repeated attempts to log in will cause your IP address to be banned, so be patient.

  4. Figure out, or set up, the category specific feed for your blog that will contain information relevant to the Fedora Planet. +{{admon/note|Category, label, or tag recommended|Please use a category, label, or tag on your personal blog to feed to the Planet, rather than your whole blog.

  5. Create a file named .planet in the root of your home directory on fedorapeople.org. The contents of the file follow the pattern below. In the brackets '''[ ]''', use the URL for the category specific feed from the previous step. +

The edit is based on feedback from @rhea in Pull Request #67. It encourages reporters to work _first_ with Platform moderators as a first response. It deliberately adds language to allow a Platform moderator to defer an issue to the Fedora Code of Conduct process at their discretion. This is a work-around to NOT collect Personally-Identifiable Information about day-to-day issues often resolved quickly by an informed Platform moderator who may have additional context that is not obvious. This work-around hopefully encourages Platform moderators to work with the Fedora Council at their own discretion of whether a local issue needs escalation. Because making a formal report in the CoC _is_ an escalation, from a psychological point-of-view. However, it also leaves a pathway for a reporter who is unsatisfied with the handling of an issue by a Platform moderator to escalate. Signed-off-by: Justin W.
