Justin M. Forbes (jforbes)

  • Mission Statement: Work make Fedora a distribution the community can be proud of, with focus on both features and stability. Stressing the balance of new features with QA and release engineering to make Fedora releases both innovative and high quality.
  • Past work summary: Original involvement in the Fedora project was working on the port to x86_64. More recently I have been focused on virtualization within Fedora.
  • Future plans: Strive to make Fedora the best freely available distribution available.

Richard June (rjune)

  • Mission Statement: I want to see Fedora be a very usable and approachable OS. I want things to either work or give an indication why they failed. I want to see gaps in utilities filled.
  • Past work summary: Originally involved with fedora at FC1, I maintained a fedora-extras + livna compatible repository for Fedora 2, 3, and 4. Additionally I have written config-dhcpd, a utility meant to fill a hole in the system-config-* tools.
  • Future plans: Add management utility for LDAP and add LDAP support for existing system-config tools, work on ironing out some of the "paper cut" bugs that don't really impair functionality, but annoy users.

Christoph Wickert (cwickert)

  • Mission Statement: Improve packaging quality and enforce higher standards for better cross desktop interoperability. Try to reduce the dependency bloat to make sure Fedora does not become too fat, so it still can be used on older or smaller hardware like Netbooks or the XO without too much pain.
  • Past work summary: Fedora's Handyman: Long time contributor, packager, sponsor and ambassador. Currently maintaining all Xfce Goodies, the Xfce core packages (together with Kevin Fenzi), the LXDE desktop (official F-10 feature) and some other stuff (> 100 packages). In the F12 development cycle I did the Xfce and LXDE Spin and helped Gerd with the Rakudo Feature. Did some artwork (Nodoka for XFWM4, Sugar for XFWM4 and OpenBox). Attended several events and helped organizing them. I'm also contributing to LXDE and OLPC upstream.
  • Future plans: Improve communication between the different bodies in the project and make decision-finding more transparent to all contributors. Take care of new contributors and support them wherever needed. Continue to promote Fedora as an ambassador and by doing one event every month and by giving more talks. Encourage cooperation with the upstream projects I'm supporting.
