Hello @kronenpj ! 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.
These links are a good read to begin with. 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:
Next, when you're ready, 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).
Finally, could you let us know how you learned about the Fedora project? Was it from a colleague, or social media, for example?
If you have any questions at all, please ask! We'll use this ticket to keep in touch! :)
In addition, could you provide some information to understand your requirements better? (You can write them in the introduction, or answer here if you feel more comfortable).
For example:
your experience with Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) communities/ecosystems:
your background/skills, for example:
your experience in communication platforms:
how much time are you looking to/are you able to spend on volunteering (approximate hours per week)?
Remember that this is not a job interview at all. This is just an icebreaker to help all your new friends get to know you quicker. The better we know you, the better we can support you in identifying Fedora activities that promise to be relevant for you.
Please write how much/whatever you wish. :).

Hello! I'm a long-time Fedora user, starting around Fedora Core 9 based on my CD-collection and a UNIX/Linux user / administrator since 1990. i am also an amateur radio operator, licensed since 1990. My home systems are primarily running Fedora with a smattering of Debian, Raspberry Pi OS, and FreeBSD for good measure. I'm currently employed writing automation and installation processes for an Ubuntu-based virtualized distributed system protecting manufacturing IT systems from themselves and the corporate network. I've contributed to several open-source projects over the years, most recently the FreeDATA project (https://github.com/DJ2LS/FreeDATA/). My primary programming language is Python but in the past I've used Bash, C, C++, Fortran, Java, Pascal, and probably a few others.

I'm interested in supporting Fedora infrastructure, Python and Security along with the various Atomic projects.
Hi kronenpj,
Have you found your way to the Fedora project that interests you?
If you have any questions, we will do our best to answer or guide you to the right people.
You have great skills so I hope you stick around - maybe in the Atomic group?
Cheers, Mat
