Hi Nasir,
This classroom for newcomers is a great idea.
I guess it should start with a very introductory one, how to get started
and have the hands dirty very fast, I mean, with real examples.
The point is, for a newcomer is a little bit hard to understand how and
when to use many different tools (Pagure, Bugzilla, Bodhi, IRC, etc, etc).
A real world example would be great, for instance, how to fix a bug into
a project, let's take DNF as example:
1. Where find open tasks and how to assign a task to yourself
2. How to clone the repo
3. How to commit the change
4. How to ask for a review
5. How to communicate
6. etc
Another good example is a packaging 101 classroom, explain the structure
of RPM, how to create a package, how to work with srpm, dependencies,
how to submit, etc..
I guess these are the main unclear topics for newcomers and the basis
for everything else.
This is my 0,01 cent for the discussion and I would be glad to
contribute more.
Have a good day
