• Architecture and future of the tools that allow anyone to create remixes of Fedora software and software from other compatible repositories
• Offering basic legal education regarding software development such as intellectual property issues like copyright, patents, and trademarks, and how these issues intersect with free and open source software development
• Design and build a free and open source cloud based solution using Fedora to deploy on systems like Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
