Ben Cotton

I am an occasional contributor to and the former leader of the Fedora Docs group. I also co-maintain the condor packages. My day job is the Senior Support Engineer for Cycle Computing, a leader in cloud-based high-performance/high-throughput computing. I have degrees in meteorology and IT project management and have an unhealthy interest in researching open source licenses and communities.

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.

-I mostly lurk in the Documentation Project, but I'm trying to make more contributions.  I am currently coordinating the [[User:bcotton/RPM_Guide_tasks|update of the RPM Guide]] and writing a chapter on printing for the [https://fedorahosted.org/userguide/ User Guide].  In the past, I've contributed to some wiki gardening and the [http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Installation_Quick_Start_Guide/index.html|Installation Quick Start Guide] for the Fedora 13 release.
