I am new to the project. I thought I'd introduce myself. My name is Chris Jones (as you've probably already noticed). I've been using Linux for many years now and in particular Ubuntu and Fedora. My job as a Photographic Imaging Professional and Graphic Designer obviously involves me with lots of digital imaging software applications. I use both Windows and Linux platforms and many software titles on both. I dabbled with the idea of getting involved in the development of Ubuntu Studio but the lack of insight into the "Graphic" side of it put me off. It's marketed as a suite for graphic, audio and video enthusiasts, but the developers simply don't wish to develop the graphic side of it anymore than what is current and wish to focus on the audio/video side. When the opportunity came around to jump on board with the Fedora Design Suite, I took it. I hope that I can bring something worthy to the project. Regards

It sounds like at least initially you'll mostly be working with the other Design Suite guys. But you are welcome to attend our weekly IRC meetings on Mondays at 1900 UTC.
Spins SIG is a bit odd. We are a good chunk about process (which we need to document better). Individuals in the group have related interests in that many maintain spin kickstart files. Also a few work at getting improvements into some of the spin tools (particularly livecd-tools which has its own list). There is also a bit of evaluating proposed spins, though that responsibility is shared with some other parts of Fedora. We are also partially responsible for testing, as most of the spins do not get as much attention from QA as the Desktop spin and the install image do.
