by Ankur Sinha
Hi folks,
I hope everyone had a restful and safe holiday break. :)
For anyone that speaks more than one language, this is an excellent
opportunity to help make Free/Open Source Software more accessible to
non-English speaking users. Please read Jean-Baptiste's email below:

Self introduction: Jan Kuparinen
by Jan K
Hello Fedorians!
My name is Jan Kuparinen and I have quite a few years of experience on server maintenance and have been full stack programming for couple of years as well. As of late I have mainly used Python on a Flask development project.
Since I speak several languages, I have updated some Finnish translations of Fedora websites.
I have made few pull requests on websites (reviews and corrections) and hope to be able to contribute some more on various areas.
During my career I have done a whole lot of work on several different areas and like problem solving and automating tasks.

Self Introduction: Canberk Duman
by Canberk Duman
Hello everyone, I'm Canberk Duman -22 years old- from Istanbul, Turkey.
I am writing my graduation thesis about Linux systems and monitoring in my last year in computer science undergraduate degree, at the same time, I am working on Linux System Management business in a private company in Istanbul.
I want to join and contribute to the Fedora project family. My areas of interest are software development and programming rather than systems management. I have developed small-scale projects in Java, C and Python languages. It will be very exciting for me to contribute to these areas in the Fedora project.
Best regards,
