Hi guys,
I am very excited about joining the Fedora Bug-Zappers group. I have been using Fedora since Werewolf was released, and have seen it grow into an OS that's cutting edge, but dependable, and defines the path for the linux world upstream projects.
true to the spirit of Open Source softwares, i also feel its high time for me to contribute whatever small little i can from my side to the continued development of Fedora Project. I have some experience with system administrator administration tasks, and
have a working knowledge of C/C++ .
As for my introduction, my name is Pratyush Sahay, 22 years old, residing at Chennai (india).
Thanks for accepting me into the Fedora Project and looking forward to contributing my bit for the development of the distro
that we all love so much..

Hi, Pratyush. I'm very sorry to respond so late, but we've been very busy with the Fedora 13 blocker bug crunch! I'll approve your group membership shortly, welcome to the group. Here's the reading list we usually send new members :) Here is a list of components which we'd like BugZappers to work on as a priority, there's lots available. The list is at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/Components_and_Triagers
we'd recommend you pick a component from that list that you feel comfortable working on, then contact its maintainer to say you'll be working on triaging it, and ask if they have any tips or special requests. Then read:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugsAndFeatureRequests https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/BugStatusWorkFlow https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/Tools https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/FindingBugs https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/How_to_Triage https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/FindingDuplicates https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/StockBugzillaResponses
To see how the process works (I know that looks like a lot of pages, but several of them are pretty short, and they all work together). Please do join #fedora-bugzappers and ask if you have any questions or problems, there's usually another team member around who can help you out. Thanks a lot for volunteering your time! Do come out to the next meeting - they're Tuesdays at 15:00 UTC - if you have the time, and we can welcome you there.
