Hello @abrarwali ! 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! :)

Thanks a lot.
@andilinux:
From time to time, we check to see how Jane is doing. Each time we do so, we set a new tag: At the first progress check, we will set the C: Progress check 1 tag. If we do not hear from Jane in sometime, such as two weeks, we do a second progress check and set the C: Progress check 2 tag. If we do not hear from Jane again, say for another two weeks, we do a third and final progress check. We set the C: Progress check 3 - Final tag. If we do not hear from Jane here also (so, in total for about 6 weeks), we assume that Jane is inactive and close the ticket with the S: User unresponsive tag.

Progress Check
Hey @abrarwali,
Hope you are doing well and enjoyed your time with us at Nest With Fedora 2021. Should you have missed out on our talks, a recording of those would be made available very soon on our official YouTube channel. I reach out to know if you have found something exciting to contribute to and be a part of in the community. With that, I am marking this ticket with its first progress check.

Hey Akash,
I had a fun time at Nest with Fedora , although I wasn't able to be a part of many sessions that I wanted to so I'm looking forward to the YouTube recordings. I started learning rpm packaging and I would like to help to maintain a package soon. Since I am a student my exams have put a temporary halt to my involvement in the fedora community and as soon as they are over I'll definitely resume from where I left off.
Thanks and Regards

I apologize for not receiving notifications about this ticket and for forgetting about it. As for my involvement, I have been packaging for thonny for more than a year and recently received sponsorship to the packagers group. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/thonny
Excellent! That's great news! Congratulations.
So, as a package maintainer, you are "officially" a contributor. Do you still think you need this ticket? Otherwise, we can close it :)
I don't think I do.
Cool! I'll close this ticket!
