IRC Handle: Backdraft
Currently employed as an AIX and RedHat Systems Administrator for the past couple of years. I have my SysAdmin and Engineer Certifications from Red Hat, but the environment that I work in is restricted to a few (6-8) servers at any given time. I'm interested in learning an environment that is larger and more varied than the one I'm in now, since I pretty much just maintain 6 copies of a single server and a few other systems as required. Unfortunately, I'm stuck in a 95% Windows shop, so the likelihood of converting or expanding my realm is minimal. I expect I'll be available at least 5-10 hours a week on US Central (UTC -06:00) time.

Welcome!
If you have not already, please do take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/GettingStarted It has some good pointers for getting started.
Do introduce yourself in IRC and/or at our next meeting.
Are you more interested in sysadmin stuff, or application development?
If you haven't already looked at the rest of the project groups, do take a look at:
