Hello @akanshakumari! Welcome to Fedora!
Before we begin, please subscribe to the Fedora join mailing list at fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org. We use this list for general discussion, and it is also where the community shares tasks that need help.
Then, could you please introduce yourself (preferably on the list) so that the community can get to know you? (interests, skills, anything you wish to say about yourself really)
In the meantime, these links would be a good read. They tell you what the Free/Open Source community is about, and then they'll introduce you to Fedora: what Fedora is all about, and what we do, and of course, how we do it:
If you have any questions at all, please ask! We'll use this ticket to keep in touch! :)

@t0xic0der I went through the links, It's quite overwhelming . Where do I need to introduce myself? Also, I'm still not much clear with how to start and what to do next.
Can you please guide me.
Hi @akanshakumari,
The above links speak about the community's vision, how the community is organized, what conduct rules we hold up to, how we set our objectives and function to their completion and much more. I would suggest you take some time and go through them slowly as understanding these are quite important and would help you become a valuable contributor in due course of time.
The places you should introduce yourself are preferably the following.
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/ 2. Fedora Join mailing list
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org/ 3. As a comment to this ticket 4. As a message to the Join SIG channel
The way I see it, you have already started and joining the @joinfedora channel on Telegram was your first step :). From then on, the only things you need to do are exploring the subprojects and SIGs we have in Fedora to see if you can be of help in them and to interact with folks and assist them wherever you see fit. Exploration can be a daunting experience I know but once you drop your introduction, you would be swiftly redirected by our friendly community members to the parts of Fedora, that can best use your skills.
As always, we appreciate questions/doubts so feel free to ask more of those if you get stuck somewhere or are in need of help.
Thanks and regards, Akashdeep t0xic0der@fedoraproject.org

Hi,
It has been a while since the last time we heard from you. I hope you are doing well and I just dropped by to see if you have found something interesting to work on. :-)
We love interacting so please feel free to reach out to us if there are any questions/concerns that you may have regarding how you can contribute to our projects.
Also, as @ankursinha mentioned, please subscribe to the Fedora India mailing list to stay in touch with all updates from our LUG and other contributors from the region.

Hi @t0xic0der , Thanks for dropping by.
I have been observing for a while now. but haven't found anything yet to work on. i feel a bit lost and unsure about where exactly to look for. it would be of great help if you could help me with that.
Looking forward to make use of my skill to help and grow with the community.
Understandable, @akanshakumari.
Please take a look at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Subprojects to find subprojects that you might have interest in. Once you find something, please let us know so that we can very specifically guide you according to the subproject of your interest.
I'm not sure how up to date that wiki page is. Best to see it in conjunction with the orgchart that was recently updated:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/orgchart/
Hey there,
We really hope that you were able to find something in the community that piques your interest (and if you were, we would absolutely love to hear about it). If not, please feel free to reach out to us with your questions/concerns and we would be glad to help you out. :-)

Hi @t0xic0der, I did find interest in CommOps. But due to some personal reasons, I will not be able to contribute to it in near future. I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused. Let me know the procedure that I need to follow to opt out (if any).
I'm thankful for all the guidance and support provided throughout.
I understand that finding time to contribute can be tricky among everything else and it is totally fine. We would now go ahead and close this ticket but please feel free to come back at a later point in time, if you wish to resume contributing.
