Hi James!
To help build off of what Matt suggested, there's definitely some
ways
for you to help with this. We had started discussing this in the
meeting, and we had actually put out the idea of having a meeting
dedicated to only this topic.
Anyways, in terms of what you can do to help, I'm assuming you're a
developer using Python. What are some things that make you <3 Python
in
Fedora? Starting off with things that make developing easier for you
is
a great way to generate some ideas about things people can talk
about
Python in Fedora. Is there a tool or package you use that simplifies
getting started or saves a lot of time? Is it something unique to
Fedora
(bonus points if yes, but don't rule it out even if it's not unique
to
Fedora!).
An idea I was thinking would be to contact the Python SIG and see
what
their interest in organizing another Porting vFAD day would be like
(last time, over one weekend, several contributors and guest
volunteers
helped port Python software from Python2 to Python3).
Do you have any ideas of ways we can market Python in Fedora to
people?
If so, feel free to list off any of your own ideas too, either here
or
in the ticket.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi Justin
The biggest question I have right now is whether I need to be a part of
the marketing group to log in to the other sites. I have an FAS
account, and the CLA has been signed, but when I try to sign on to the
TRAC, I get a "you are not allowed here" message, and the wiki tells me
that my login info is bad.
As for what I <3 about Python in Fedora, I would say that it comes down
to the fact that the packages I need are in the repos, so I can manage
everything with one package manager, and the ease of transition to RHEL
instances. That said, I didn't really choose Fedora as a Python
developer, but as someone who appreciates free software and Fedora's
stance on it.
Regards,
James
