Hi Kevin and all, I will apply non CLA group but Kevin I created my fedoraproject wiki account last year (I'm working with the Danishka Navin <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Snavin> and Truong Anh Tuan <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Tuanta>. ) and i did edit wiki pages without any problem for the fedora 24 release event also. Guys this account created last year and last few weeks i tried to access my account but i can't. Help me to solve this problem...

Flory Hello Justin, are you guessing a sort of "tutoring"? This was the idea when I thought at my talk for the Flock in Rochester. I still think this is the only way for gathering people and leading them to a project contribution. In that case, of course, we need to get help from other groups (from mentors?). Let's discuss in Krakow. Of course we have to think on how get in touch with the upcoming hubs. Gabri

We're glad to have you here with us. :) In regards to having enough knowledge in order to contribute, I'd take a bet you probably have enough to get started already. :) It's easy to look at number of the "big" things happening in Fedora and think they're too hard and out of reach, but there's so many smaller AND important things that all lead up to those bigger things too. As a student myself, I realized this only after I began contributing. I figured out that I wasn't giving myself enough credit for the ways I could help or contribute with the skills I already had. What languages are you familiar with already, or is there any kind of specific area you'd be thinking of contributing towards? In either case, one great website you will probably want to check out and play around with is "What can I do for Fedora?" http://whatcanidoforfedora.org/ This site has a quick and easy way for you to see all of the different places you can contribute to in Fedora and try to find something that fits well for you. You can learn more about any of the different teams, sub-projects, or SIGs at the endpoint on the site. Of course, we're always here to help answer any questions you might have if you get stuck or are confused on something. Hope you find all of this useful. And welcome to Fedora! -- Cheers, Justin W.
