Hi everyone,
My name is Kirk, I'm looking to get more involved with the design
team.
Hi Kirk,
Welcome aboard! We're currently having a bit of a brouhaha over the
wallpaper for the upcoming Fedora 15 release, but normally we're a
friendly and fun bunch. :)
My background is as a user experience professional and business
analyst. I'm currently the UX Advocate for Liferea, and am looking to
contribute further to Fedora specifically. I've migrated from Ubuntu
as their design direction doesn't really match my computer use
practices.
We're starting to focus more on enhancing ux in fedora, so that's
great!
Looking forward to lending a hand in some manner!
If you haven't done so already, I'd recommend reading up on how to join
the design team on the fedora wiki [1], and looking over the design team
ticket tracker [2] to see if there are any open tickets you'd be
interested in claiming.
We also have weekly IRC meetings every Tuesday at 1900 UTC at
#fedora-design(a)freenode.net. You're welcome to start attending.
Actually, the meetings may be put on hiatus until after the new year, so
keep a lookout on the mailing list for a notice about an upcoming
meeting. If you don't see one, we're probably not having one.
Nice to meet you!
Emily
