  • Goal Statement: To increase the visibility of Fedora and encourage a community of contributors rather than simply one of consumers.
  • Past work summary: I am currently employed by Red Hat (since 2001). Currently, I am the Fedora Engineering Manager inside Red Hat, leading a team of full-time Fedora contributors working at Red Hat, and acting as a liason between Red Hat and the community. I have been active in Fedora since its inception, serving on FESCo, chairing the Fedora Packaging Committee, and acting as the Fedora Legal point of contact. I generated the Secondary Architecture guidelines, and have advised the Fedora Board on related matters. I have more than 250 packages in Fedora, and I represent Fedora proudly at public events as part of the Fedora Ambassador team. I'm also involved with Fedora release engineering, and general troubleshooting that needs doing. On top of all of that, I'm leading the Fedora SPARC effort. :)
  • Future Plans: Continuing growth in Secondary Architectures, simplifying Packaging Guidelines, spreading the Fedora message to the FOSS community at large
  • Anything else: Ninjas. Lots of them.
