Hello Fedora Peeps,
Hi,
My name is Jeff (fas: sejeff; github: SEJeff) and I've been a
user/contributor to Fedora for some time now. My first contribution to
Fedora was a Rhythmbox Bluecurve Theme[1] around 2005.
So much time...
Professionally, I'm a
systems automation engineer and have packaged rpms as part of my work duties
as far back as 2006. I'm an avid desktop Linux user and am a co-maintainer
of 2 somewhat well known open source projects saltstack's salt[2] and
graphite[3]. I'm also a
gnome.org sysadmin team alumni but haven't been very
active the last 2 years due to work commitments.
Hope you will return back for
gnome sysadm team ;)
I'd like to become a Fedora packager for a few reasons that seem worth
explaining here. First off, I'd like to be able to yum install both serf[4]
and consul[5]. Secondly, as a co-maintainer of the graphite-project, I'd
like to ensure the newest graphite bits are available in Fedora and
eventually in EPEL. I know we've had a lot of users who struggled installing
graphite-web and the cairos / pycairos dependencies on RHEL. I'd like to fix
this by ensuring the necessary stuff is in EPEL so they can yum install it
all.
Feel free to send this RPMed packages to the review!
Thought I should say hi per the wiki docs.
Welcome on aboard!
