The Fedora Packaging Committee has two open seats and is accepting submissions from interested candidates to serve on the FPC.

This position involves not only reviewing Packaging Guideline drafts submitted to the FPC for consideration, but also rewriting drafts (sometimes from scratch) to resolve the issue in a more acceptable fashion. Additionally, the FPC reviews bundling exceptions (and UID/GID soft static assignment). The FPC meets on IRC weekly, Wednesdays at 1600 UTC, for approximately an hour. FPC members serve for as long as they are willing, there are currently no term limits. All decisions are voted on using a +1 (for), 0 (abstain), and -1 (against) mechanism, and all decisions must be approved by a majority (+5). FPC Meetings do not happen if quorum (5) is not present.

Candidates who are interested should provide the following details to the FPC for consideration, by emailing it directly to me (dominik@greysector.net). The FPC will consider all candidates, but strongly prefers candidates who have extensive experience packaging in Fedora. We will accept applications for the next week (deadline Wednesday Oct 1, 2014).
