Hi Ed.
I just sent out a very similar intro email about an hour ago. My background
is more in systems engineering and administration with an emphasis on
automated deployment and the big services (bind,sendmail,squid,apache,etc).
I have a nice lab environment that I can use for testing and development. It
is comprised of a handful of managed GB switches, a 6TB NAS and 6 servers. I
do a lot with virtualization too. I noticed that there was a desire for
possibly som php/mysql. I am very comfortable with that too!

Hello, All-
My name is Ed and I am interested in getting involved with the Fedora
project. To give you some of my background, I have a Bachelor's degree in
Electrical Engineering but have spent the majority of my professional career
in the realm of scientific application programming, system administration
and network security. I have contributed to open source projects in the
past mostly with code contributions that included random patch submissions
for the FreeBSD project. I am adept at most compiled/scripted languages to
include C, C++, ObjC, Python, Bash, etc with the exclusion of Java/C#.
After several years I am again in a position where I can contribute again to
the F/OSS community. In the past I mostly used the BSD flavor of UNIX OSes,
Debian and Solaris but I recently tried Redhat again after a number of years
and I am quite impressed with the latest iterations of the package. I'll be
lurking on the list and on the IRC channel from time to time if anyone is
interested in a somewhat veteran hand. As a note, in the past I had an
array of hardware and processor architectures that I could test various code
on but at the moment I am limited to one x86 desktop machine for any
development and testing. Thank you for your time and have a nice day.
V/R
Ed
