Hi! I'm Justin. Ben Cotton hosted a Fedora "birds of a feather" event at Ohio Linux Fest this past weekend, and we talked docs. I'd like to help.

I started my career as a technical writer. (I took over Klaatu's job, if any of you know him!) Later, I became a Linux system administrator. (Got my RHCSA and RHCE. I'm a big fan of Ansible; I'm going to start publishing roles I've made.) Now, I'm transitioning to DevOps mainly through work with Python and GitLab.

But I still love to write. Where I work, I've developed our IT documentation strategy. I write OpsDocs for (nearly) all servers and technologies that we use as well as runbooks for IT support. I'm kind of infamous for wanting everything documented.

I practically live in Emacs Org Mode and have used Markdown and some RST. I haven't used AsciiDoc yet, but I should be a quick study. If someone could mentor me as I get started, that'd be great.

I'm happy to help where the need is greatest, but Ben mentioned that the package building instructions need moved from the wiki to the docs site. That might be interesting. I'd like to get better at RPM packaging for my own reasons.
