I would like to take a more active role in documentation, in the hopes that Fedora has a
resource that is as useful as the Arch Wiki. I have been using Fedora Workstation (back in
the 7,8,9 days) most recently since Fedora 31 as my main computer at home. Also for the
last year and a half my son and I have been running our home server on Fedora Server as
well. We would like to do even more in our "homelab" with Fedora server, but we
struggle with finding documentation for things like Podman, integrations with Cockpit,
managing data pools with the new features of Btrfs on Fedora, and especially SELinux as it
relates to running services like Syncthing. It seems like Fedora could be one of the
perfect playgrounds for the homelab tinkerer because of how quickly Fedora adopts new
technologies, but at the same time it seems like the documentation lags behind those new
technologies. I was thinking today that I could be frustrated by that or help the Fedora
community by being part of the solu
tion.
Currently, I have been giving my free time to MX Linux, doing some QA testing for their
upcoming release, but my heart is in the area of documentation which seems to be an area
that MX Linux doesn't need a lot of help in at this time. They have a main developer
who is documenting all their features and tools well. From the current look of the Fedora
server docs it looks like there is a need for documentation writers. Is there are roadmap
of tasks that a non-sys-admin could help out with, or are you looking for more experienced
sysadmins to tackle Fedora Server Docs? You won't hurt my feelings if you feel that my
lack of experience will be more of a hinderence to the Fedora Server docs than a help.
