* '''Future plans:'''
** With the introduction of Fedora products, make sure that they make consistent technology choices to avoid splintering the Fedora universe into incompatible subgroups and wasting effort on reimplementations.
** Make sure that new ideas are properly evaluated and if appropriate well integrated into distribution.
** More QA automation - supporting the current tool work, make it more integrated into the packaging process and increasing testing coverage.
** Strive to make core components of Fedora well integrated.  
** Fedora is often the place where packages affected by changes other packages first interact, and handling this well is critical for achieving good user experience. To that end, I want to improve the handling of changes that affect other packages and ensuring distribution-wide consistency - while making it possible to make successful transitions faster, not slowing change down in bureaucracy.
** Push the container technologies.
** I also generally favor policies that allow quick bug->fix turnaround time and allow more enhancements into released versions of Fedora.
** Outside of FESCo my interest is in improving security of Fedora.
