Your goals in the Fedora Project
* Which packages do you want to see published?
. updated net-snmp w/perl support
. updated dhcp packages suitable for failover support
. nagios, CMU NetReg, rrdtool, cricket, mrtg
. IPv6 support in more apps
. network-related work with e.g. link detection, IPsec...
. alsa, more multimedia apps (with IP multicast support)
. kegs (Kent's Emulated GS) and other emulator tools
. koules and xboing (anyone up for network koules? :)
* Do you want to do QA?
Yes.
* Anything else special?
My main interests are in packaging, QA, testing,
tools/infrastructure/admin, rather than
coding/debugging. However, I'd feel at home coding in
Perl.
I'm interested in Legacy only to support my couple of
remaining 7.3 boxes for as long as they stay that way,
and possibly 7.2/Alpha and Aurora SPARC as time permits.

I've been a RHL user since 1996/RHL 4.0 or so. I've
done a lot of RPM packaging, informally published on
ftp://angus.ind.wpi.edu/pub/cra-contrib. I've
participated in RHL betas and the mirror process.
