Hello @ahmedalmeleh ! 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! :)
I sent my intro email to fedora-qa on test@lists.fedoraproject.org, I had Alessio reply with some links which were helpful, however on the wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join
It states that: "If you send a self-introduction mail at the same time as you apply to the FAS group, a group sponsor will approve your membership right away. If you do not, a sponsor will contact you directly to confirm your interest before approving your group membership."
He didn't add me to the FAS Group yet nor mention the FAS group in his reply. What is the best way, I can join the QA FAS group?
Also, I am wondering if an onboarding call is still possible?
Thanks, Ahmed
I'm also interested in fedora-websites, and Infrastructure too.

Hello team,
My name is Ahmed Almeleh, I am 20 years old and live in London, UK.
I am really interested in helping with Fedora's Quality Assurance team. And websites / Infrastructure.
I have a BTEC Level 3 in Computing from Nescot College at Distinction Distinction Merit (DDM) grade. I am currently studying for my HND in Computing at Nescot whilst also teaching Information Technology online through Superprof. I love virtualizing Linux distros such as Fedora, Oracle Linux, POP OS and Ubuntu. I started using Linux with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on the 25th October 2016 when I was only 15 years old. I loved updating packages, backing up and testing the distro out. My first contact with Fedora was Fedora 28. I really enjoy using DNF and really want to be a System Administrator or Web Developer. I am fluent in Html, CSS and JavaScript. I also am currently doing an assignment for college that involves testing how data can be secured when working remotely and how to monitor employees who are working remotely.
Feel free to contact me
Yours Sincerely Ahmed Almeleh
I seem to have unassigned myself by accident
Also, I did test some of fedoras base images for MATE and Workstation:
And updated the editions page to current official and emerging ones. Which was quite good.
