Good morning to the list,

Hi there!

My name is Jörg Stephan, i am an 34 years old system administrator from germany. I basically work on maintaining some hundreds of debian/ubuntu based servers and a handful of centos machines. I would like to participate/contribute to the infrastructure team. Besides my administrator work i am also responsible for IT security questions.

I have some advanced knowledge in topics like basic administration (webservers, databases, fileserver, etc) monitoring with nagios and zabbix and configuration via puppet.

Please feel free to hang out in #fedora-admin and #fedora-noc on Freenode. There's also #fedora-apps for app development efforts, if that side of things interests you at all.

We have meetings in #fedora-meeting on Thursdays at 19:00 UTC. Feel free to introduce yourself there and then we can get you added to the fi-apprentice FAS group which lets you look around at various pieces of the infrastructure and see how things work.

There's also https://fedoraproject.org/easyfix/ which lists some bugs that might be good starting points for new contributors.
