Hello infra! My name is Elizabeta and I'd like to contribute! I'm now a student at RMIT in Melbourne, however for the past 5 years I've been a sysadmin working in managed hosting and vfx. I'm a python developer, config management (puppet, ansible) and fairly confident dba. I'd like to learn more about fedora (Primarily supported debian) and eventually get into kernel dev. I look forward to helping out in anyway I can, I can provide about 12 hours a week until March then I'd drop down to 6 as uni starts.
Thanks,
Elizabeta

Hi,
For the sysadmin/infra side, you've found the right place, but we don't deal with kernel devel.
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. Most of our work is done in Python. See https://github.com/fedora-infra/.
We also have meetings in #fedora-meeting on Thursdays at 19:00 UTC. Feel free to introduce yourself there and then we can add you to the fi-apprentice FAS group which will let 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.
