FESCo (Engineering)

What is your background in engineering?
Why do you want to be a member of FESCo?

What is your strongest point as a candidate? What is your weakest point?
Currently, how do you contribute to Fedora? How does that contribution benefit the community?
What objectives or goals should FESCo focus on to help keep Fedora on the cutting edge of open source development?
If a past member of FESCo, identify a negative factor you noticed while serving in FESCo. How would you propose to improve on that for the next cycle?
Do you believe the Modularity objective is important to Fedora's success? Is there anything you wish to bring to the modularity efforts?
The Linux ecosystem of today is not the ecosystem of five years ago. Do you think Fedora should innovate further or "steady the boat" with the existing initiatives in the project? Why?

FAmSCo

What kind of information should be exchanged between Ambassadors and other groups / sub-projects?
If a past member of FAmSCo, identify a negative factor you noticed while serving. How would you suggest improving on that for the next cycle?
The past term, FAmSCo did not have any representatives from NA or APAC. If a region isn't represented this term, how do you hope to help include and support a region without representation?
