Hello, Fedora!
I'm a free software hacker and IT student at RIT looking to get
involved with the Fedora Infrastructure team. I will also be joining
the team as a Red Hat intern this Summer, if I am accepted. This is
my "introduction" email, as per
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/GettingStarted.
My IRC Handle is oddshocks. I use this username just about
everywhere.
My skills & tools include GNU/*nix (especially Fedora),
Python, Bash, SASS/CSS, Vim, Git, Tmux, Irssi, Mako, Jinja, and
SQLAlchemy. I have full-stack experience, from back-end logic &
database to front-end web development. I am specifically interested
in DevOps and Systems Administration. From the infra team, I hope to
learn more about application and OS development and management. I am
a fast learner and I love solving problems with free software.
As far as work, I will perhaps explore some "easyfix" bugs
to start, and if I am accepted for the Red Hat internship, I will
probably be working in the area of fedmsg, Open Badges, datanommer,
FUSS, and similar things.
If you'd like to read more about my experience and skills, the
resume I used to apply for the Red Hat internship is at
https://github.com/oddshocks/resume/blob/master/resume.rst.
I should be in the IRC meeting today (which I believe starts in an
hour and a half), so perhaps I will see some of you there! Have a
good one. :)
