Introduction

Background
Personal
- IT Student
- Chess player
Fedora
- Lived and died on rawhide since 2009
- By necessity I frequent [1]fedoraforum.org as they have a rawhide and mac section and several super helpful devs. I'm hoping to get into using [2]askfedora more as it seems perhaps easier for new people and ubuntu has great success with it.
- Now running fedora on my macbook air 2011. A great combination and fedora does the hard yards to make the drivers pretty decent.
Plans in 2013
To get involved in Fedora promotion in my region, doing what I normally do anyways which is spreading the word and explaining to fellow users and devs the benefits of Fedora, FOSS and linux in all aspects.
Hopefully gain experience new things in Fedora by watching more experienced Fedora users and teaching it to others.
Learn RPM packaging and if I get that far, find a package related to my studies.
Learn fedora related tools to give presentations on to local TLUG - ie. openshift with django, ROR
