Oversight of the feature process and various SIG's as required, however, I much prefer a hands-off approach unless intervention is required. At that time, intervention should be swift and with the goal of resolving the issues as quickly as possible.

Nominations

DennisGilmore

  • Mission Statement : My goal is to continue to be a voice for infastructure, Secondary Arches and OLPC, Making sure that where possible everything needed to run fedora on a day to day basis is available and done. Try to ensure that each step Fedora makes is a step forward.
  • Past work summary : Maintain Extras for Aurora SPARC Linux, maintain a small handful of packages, buildsystem maintenance. I have done alot of work in infrastructure making sure that servers are up and running. Implemented EPEL buildsys and drove the initial idea forward. FESCo member, Fedora Board member and past EPEL steering committie member.
  • Future Plans : Continue work on Secondary Arches, Build system improvements, Making a better experience for maintainers in anyway I can. I also have an interest in Security.

Nigel Jones

  • Mission Statement: My main goal upon becoming a member of FESCo focus on easing the barriers for new (prospective) maintainers to join Fedora Project while continuing to ensure that our (high) standards are met, not just through initial package review but throughout the package lifespan and also focusing on maintainer retention.
  • Past work summary: I've been a user of Fedora since Core 2 while 'joining the community' later on with Core 6, in addition I've been a linux user since Mandrake 8.2 (I can still remember reading the manual online excitedly and really been wow'd by the interface but then disappointed by not knowing how to do anything - I was much younger then and I learned pretty quickly), I took a break for just under a year when my CLA was invalidated (employment) but I'm back as a maintainer of ~15 packages, member of the Infrastructure group & development lead of the Elections application.
  • Future plans: I plan on continuing the great work by FESCo (and others) on improving the packagers work flow, becoming more involved on a mentor ship level for new (and prospective) maintainers and become more involved on an SIG front to keep Fedora looking and working great.


Bill Nottingham

  • Mission Statement: I plan to represent the Fedora community in FESCo with an eye towards maintaining the quality and standards of the Fedora distribution, including features, testing, release engineering, and so on.
  • Past work summary : Red Hat employee since 1998, developer on Red Hat Linux since 5.1, Fedora contributor since its inception, FESCo member, Fedora board member, Release engineering team member, and assorted other roles.
  • Future plans : Continue to make Fedora the best freely available distribution anywhere.

Nominations in case there are not enough candidates in the previous section

ChristianIseli

  • Mission Statement : I'm a firm believer in the KISS principle, think that common sense should trump, and like to have as many things open as possible.
  • Past work summary : I maintain 7 packages, seat in FESCo, and try to keep the ["PackageMaintainers/PackageStatus"] page up to date. I've been known to participate in mass rebuilds, mass BZ ticket filing, and otherwise make a nuisance of myself on occasions.
  • Future Plans : I'll continue to keep an eye on the review process, making sure all packages can be easily traced from review submission to retirement. I also like to automate things where possible. I'd like Fedora to become the de-facto source of high quality packages that other, slower moving distros can use to build their stuff on. I'd like Fedora to stay on the bleeding edge, to be the main interface between upstream project developers and usable packages in a coherent distribution.

WarrenTogami

  • I maintain many packages in Fedora, FESCO member for many years, and also member of Fedora Release Engineering. I spend a lot of time working on LTSP for Fedora.
