Hi everyone, Please do not reply to this thread. It is clear this was a misunderstanding due to differing cultural contexts and further on-list discussion is not going to be productive. I think Swastika's gracious response is all that really needs to be said, in any case.~mSent from my Galaxy

Hi Swastika!
Welcome to the team - we are quite happy to have
you here!
One thing I'd like to point out is that we have
fortnightly video chat meetups - our next one is
scheduled for March 3rd - so keep an eye out for
that and we'd love to meet you! (Details on the call
are here: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/join-us-design-team-sessions-live/

It seems that your core interest is in user research
and interface design. Would you like to help me
review the design in this ticket? Maybe we could
meet up and go through it?

Picking up tickets to work on! Some tips
by Máirín Duffy
Hi folks,
I want to avoid anyone working on a ticket that hasn't been triaged or
assessed yet. Particularly, if a ticket involves working with Fedora
trademarks, there's certain rules / restrictions around that and new
contributors would likely not be familiar, so a couple of points:
- If a ticket does not have the "triaged" tag on it (it's bright green,
will appear in the ticket list and in the right sidebar of the ticket
page) please reach out here on list or track me down to get the ticket
triaged / assessed. I am just worried there are tickets in the system
that aren't valid or have specific requirements (like trademark related
tickets) that would save wasted effort / time if you had the information
to start.
- Before working on Fedora branding tickets, please review the Fedora
Logo usage guidelines:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines. These do apply and
any exceptions to these guidelines need to be approved by me (as the
Fedora Logo maintainer.)
I am feeling really bad because there's a lot of excellent work on
ticket #731 right now but we can't use it because of the conflict with
the logo usage guidelines as well as the fact we have team logo
templates we need to stick to.
Cheers,
~m
