Hi everyone,
I'm Michael Kohl and generally go by citizen428 online
(
https://citizen428.net/).
I've been a Ruby developer since ~2004 and was part of Gentoo's Ruby team
(amongst others) from around that time until mid 2006 or so. I have
contributed some bugfixes to JRuby
(
https://github.com/jruby/jruby/commits?author=citizen428) and quite
recently my first one to MRI
(
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commits?author=citizen428). I'm quite involved
in the Ruby community and co-organize Bangkok.rb and RubyConf Thailand. I
also like speaking at events myself.
I currently work for DEV (
https://dev.to/) and our systems stack leverages
FCOS. So I'm interested in helping with getting new Ruby releases packaged
fast.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
Have a nice day,
Michael
Hi Michael,
welcome! Good to have you.
I've sponsored you! In case you're not yet familiar with packaging in Fedora:
Good start is to submit some new package for review, or to do some "unofficial
review", or newly you can subit pull requests to enhance / upgrade current packages:
Regards,
