Hi Ruby!

I'm glad you're interested in contributing to Fedora as part of our internship program for women!

The first step is that you'll need to select a project and get in touch with the project mentor. The list of projects and mentors is here, do you see any of interest?:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_For_Women_2013/Mentors

The development projects specifically are here, which I think might appeal to you because of your programming background:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_For_Women_2013/Mentors#Devel...

Once you pick a project, you should email the mentor(s) for the project and ask them for a small task you can complete as part of your application. The full application instructions, including the application form, are here:

https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen#Application_Process

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions - you've got a very strong CV and I am really looking forward to your application!

Hi all,

...

I would like to express an interest in contributing to Fedora. I am very eager to apply to the Outreach program for Women and feel this is a fantastic project for me to contribute too, mainly as I am such a Linux fan! I have attached my CV so you can find out a bit about myself and my Github is https://github.com/rubychilds although I am currently in the process of adding more to it.

I look forward to hearing from you,
