Hi guys,
I'm Mauro, from Italy! I'll start by introducing what I do, then why "I'm here".
I've been a Software Developer for four years until September 2020, mainly on Java stack; some months ago I moved to a Sysadmin/Devops Engineering role. I work with different kinds of technologies at the moment, from "classic" Linux server management via plain bash scripting, Docker containers and Puppet/Foreman provisioning to cloud services (AWS). Some tools for the last are Ansible, Packer and AWS Cloudformation. Of course I work (love) a lot git since I'm dealing every day with different repositories (I'm the classic nerd guy at work that helps everyone dealing with git, trying to get everyone to use the cli!) and use a lot of Jenkins by working on pipeline jobs, from automated tasks to software deployment to infrastructure provisioning. I love working on new processes or improving existing ones and documenting the whole, sharing those informations and knowledge with others.
Finally why I'm here. I've been passionate about Open Source, GNU/Linux in particular, since University and always wanted to contribute to it without never understanding how. I was a member of the LUG team of Rome, so that allowed me to help others. Now after some years of working experience and with the Covid situation that it's messing around all the world, I decide to join the Fedora community and give back something to it.
Just to recap, my main area could be:
- Cloud - Infrastructure - Development, maybe to something really near to Fedora infrastructure - I'll add this but I still have to figure it out as "area", packages
Thanks, Mauro

That sounds great! Please do let us know if we can help in anyway. We're always on the channels/mailing lists :)
Hi @Ankur,
thank you!
Can you help me in order to understand next steps? I was thinking to introduce myself in the mailing lists of my interest, what do you think?
Thanks, Mauro

Yes, that'll be the next step.
You already seem to know how FOSS communities work, but in any case, have we opened a ticket for you at Welcome-to-Fedora yet? https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Welcome-to-Fedora/issues
(The idea behind the tickets is to provide some general information to new people in one place so they don't have to dig up information on the wiki etc.)
