Hello. I'm kinda new to this all but My name's Ed Holmes.
IRC: holmed
Skills: I can code in C/C++ and Python
Learn: I'd like to learn in depth how linux works.
To Work on: I'd like to work on how well Fedora works on Macs. Especially newer MacBooks. For example, when it is installed with rEFIt (a mac boot loader), it shows up various options (some bios, some EFI) but only one of the options work.
Okay well i guess thats it. Also, since I've not had much experience of the actual workings of Linux, what language is primarily used? Or used the most?
Cheers

That sounds like you might like to help out getting grub2 working better on those devices? Several ways to do that:
- You can look at open grub2 bugs and try and provide patches or fixes: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/grub2/bugs/all
- You can work with grub2 upstream project and help them improve support.
- You could join the QA folks and help test things. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join

Depends on what area you mean... :)
