Greetings!





This email is to
introduce myself and to list some notes about my experience.*
I'm very excited about being a part of the Fedora Project and feel I
have much to contribute.



My experience with computer systems
dates to an old 8088 running MS-DOS 6.22.* Only in the last
couple years have I made the switch to open source.* I would
consider my experience with Linux and Unix systems to be fairly
beginner to intermediate at this point.* I'm proficient on the
command line and hope to grow my experience in scripting
languages.



I hold an associates in applied sciences with a
focus of computer networking.* During the day, I work as a
support technician doing basic desktop support and network
troubleshooting.* I'm part of a large team and I enjoy working
and communicating with them daily.



My reason for joining the
Fedora Project is both for personal enjoyment and for professional
development.






I look forward to learning more about
the infrastructure group and contributing to the Project in any way
possible.







Thanks for your time,





Yancy

Welcome Yancy, Was there a particular FIG you were interested in
participating with?

Mike,







Thanks for the response.*
Looking through the list of FIGs, I found hosting to be appealing.*
General maintenance and administration would be a good fit for me at
this point.* I also noticed on some earlier emails that there
are holes in coverage that perhaps I could help fill.



Please
let me know who would be a good person to reach out to in regards to
hosting.





Thanks,



-Yancy
