I've been subscribed to this mailing list for a long time but have been struggling to find the time to step up and start actively contributing (or even supporting) in any way. Anyway, to the point (I'll introduce myself etc in another mail), is there interest in a Virtual Host role available (outside of just, dnf installgroups) that can be used for either as an independent hypervisor or managed by oVirt? If not, this will be an area of interest for me to work on.
Sounds very interesting to _me_ at least, and in line with what I was just saying. :)
With regards to meetings - I'm assuming that I can join and contribute despite not being a listed member? I couldn't find much information for newbs specific to server-wg on the wiki.
Yes, absolutely you can. The basic structure (not just for Server but roughly in general) is that we have a broader SIG (special interest group) which is informal and anyone can join, and a more formal WG (working group) which is responsible to meet regularly and has voting power for hard decisions which require a vote. The WG _should_ represent the core of people who are actually active and doing things, so membership is reevaluated periodically — and it's generally the case that active SIG members will have the opportunity WG members eventually if they want to.
If you want, you can add your name to the SIG "Fan Club" list at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Server — or, you can just start working. (Hmmm. That page could stand to be updated to clarify what I just said above, for that matter.)
