Packaging

I am an owner or co-owner of

  • condor
  • wordgrinder
  • latex2html

Marketing

I joined the Marketing team in December 2017. I'm interested in starting an I am Fedora short video series.

Documentation Project

I was volunteered to be the Docs project leader in November 2011. Mostly my contributions involve administrivia, easy bug fixes, and occasional chapters about printing. I sort of faded away from the docs project when life got in the way.

I have a page of DocBook notes because I haven't found one elsewhere on the wiki. I also have a page of User:Bcotton/Useful_links because I can never seem to find what I'm looking for via the wiki search.
