Hello,
My name is Marcel Lambert. I became a practitioner of Linux due to internet security reasons with the release of Red Hat 9 and since then I live with it and maintain occasional notes at http://netston.tripod.com/Windows_Linux.htm. When choosing OS I am a conservative (you can call me rational minority), and I use both Linux and Windows and live with advantages and disadvantages of both.
Originally, I got closely acquainted with computers about 25 year ago being a student in natural sciences, and moved to IT entirely shortly after. I designed and developed software, managed numerous IT projects. A turning point in my career was in Tradescape.com, later purchased by E*Trade, where I had managed a project (and was a key architect/developer) for MTrade platform for trading stocks on NASDAQ/NYSE.
My internet nickname is ARMADILLO, and I am interested in writing about security topics and all the things in Fedora that help adventurous, safety-demanding armadillos explore the world with Linux :-)
A+

Marcel, great to meet you. There are several guides being worked on right now that include security topics, including the Administration Guide. Bart Couvreur heads up the work on that particular document, so I'm sure he'll be glad to give you a shout and direct you to where he could use some help. If you have problems or questions, please let us know on the list and we'll be glad to help you out. You can also find us on IRC at FreeNode, on channel #fedora-docs.
Hi Marcel!

Glad to have you aboard. As someone interested in security, would you be interested in getting involved by updating our SELinux FAQ for Fedora 8 and beyond? It has not really been updated since Fedora Core 5, but that doesn't mean there's necessarily a huge amount of material to add. Mainly it needs someone to go over it, compare it with some of the other available SELinux pages on the wiki:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux
...and make the FAQ agree. I think Marc was working on this but he could probably use some extra hands. Please take a look at our style guide so that you can learn to approximate the tone we shoot for in our documents:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/StyleGuide
If you have anything else in mind to do, please feel free to talk about it here. Again, welcome!
Marcel:
