Hi again,

I will be glad if someone can help me getting started towards however small but high quality contribution to fedora. I have read many fedora wiki pages about getting started and still exploring to get familiar with environment.



I'm a Linux user since Redhat 9. To begin with, I have chosen Smolt application in fedora. Later I will expand my scope to create application for Automated-Trading in Fedora. Yet another work will focus on running non-native applications with full charm in Fedora (ex- Age of Empires - II the conquerors, I love this game :P). My TODO list is not limited to these works. I would like to work towards making Fedora easier to use for normal users as well as developers by building the tools and utilities, and creating new applications to make Fedora development faster and smoother process.



looking forward to hear from you guys :)...cheers...

Thanks & Regards,

We have a list of 'easyfix' tickets at:
http://fedoraproject.org/easyfix/

Take a look at the applications there and see if any of those tickets
interest you.

Smolt is going to be retired soon. ;(

However, there is a replacement on the horizon, a project called
'census'. https://fedorahosted.org/census/browser
I'm sure census folks would love to have help... I can put you in touch
if you are interested.

Great. Many of those sound like standalone applications. You should be
able to develop them as normal and get them reviewed and shipped with
Fedora (provided licensing and such is acceptable).

Welcome again. Look forward to talking with you.

interest you.

I'm going through the list.

That's unfortunate but as someone said "everything happens for a good reason."




I'm sure census folks would love to have help... I can put you in touch

if you are interested.


sure, if 'census' team is ready to take me in. I would love to join them :).
I chose that application because it had no maintainer and tools and technologies used were similar under Fedora-Infrastructure sub-project.

Happy to answer your questions on irc. I did post some information to
the ticket a few weeks ago.

We have also had several other folks interested in this ticket, so you
might first add a comment that you are interested in working on it and
see if anyone else would like to work with you or is still/already
working on it.

Here is what I've done on the ticket:*https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AojAy7j7SbkBdHVNY1VjR1g3VThRSkVSNjZwQWhJN 1E

Hope you find it useful, although it needs to be updated since we have few new hosts and domains. (again, it's not an official nor complete list of hosts, don't rely on it!)There are few lists that together make a (hopefully) complete list of our hosts, though none of them is complete: nagios hosts, nagios-external hosts, puppet nodes,*infra-hosts. All of them can be accessed through git on lockbox01 (look for nagios stuff in modules folder in puppet)

My nick is mahrud, let me know if you need any help.

Thanks. Perhaps you and Vipin could get together and see if you have
all the info you are looking for. I'd be happy to fill in any blanks.

Thanks Mahrud,

Maybe its bit difficult for me to decode the information as I'm new. It will be better if you can explain it little bit.

thanks & regards,
