I wish I knew how to organize some optional program language specific skills development sessions aimed at packagers that made sense..but I don't. Nothing like a cert or anything like that, but to introduce packagers and potential packagers to languages just as a good skills building exercise.
More than learning development skills for the language you package, it would be great to introduce stuff like how software is build / installed.
I'd love to learn how autotools, setuptools, and other equivalents for other languages work. Not necessarily because I want to build a project using those, but because I sometimes have a hard time figuring out how to patch a Makefile in one of my packages, why I should patch a .in or .am file,...
Actually, those would be great ideas for Fedora Classrooms I guess.
