It is bittersweet to announce that I have decided to move on from my role as the Fedora Community Action and Impact Coordinator (FCAIC). For me, this role has been full of growth, unexpected challenges, and so much joy. It has been a privilege to help guide our wonderful community through challenges of the last three years. I’m excited to see what the next FCAIC can do for Fedora. If you’re interested in applying, see the FCAIC job posting on Red Hat Jobs and read more about the role below.

We want to hear from you: take the Fedora Annual Contributor Survey for 2022!

June 2, 2022 / isagordillo / 3 Comments

The Fedora Council wants to hear what you have to say! Like last year, the goal of this survey is to collect valuable feedback to provide the right support for our Fedora community. We will evaluate the gathered information and discuss them at Nest with Fedora 2022. We are excited to have another set of data so we can run a comparative analysis and understand changes in the Fedora community over the last year. The survey will be open for all of June, and you will have the opportunity to earn a fun Fedora Badge. Take this year’s Annual Contributor Survey today!

The survey was coordinated by an awesome set of folks: Fedora Council member, Aleksandra Fedorova, Marie Nordin (coordination), Sumantro Mukherjee (support), Vipul Siddharth (LimeSurvey wrangler), Isabella Gordillo-Guevara (promotion) and Ashlyn Knox (websites). The Mindshare Committee and the Community Outreach Revamp team also aided in the creation of the survey and provided feedback several times as it was developed. We are excited to hear what our community has to say!

Nest with Fedora & Fedora Hatch: Announcing dates & call for volunteers

March 26, 2022 / riecatnor / 3 Comments

Hi Fedora Friends! We made it through another year of living with COVID-19, with plenty of other challenges added on top. To everyone who make up Fedora – thank you for your presence, contributions, and efforts during this trying time. Because we have yet to see an end to living with COVID-19, I opened a discussion with the community about what we should do for this year’s contributor conference.

Based on that feedback, I am pleased to announce that we will be holding the third edition of Nest with Fedora on August 4th, 5th, & 6th. I will be publishing info on the CfP in the upcoming months. We will also be funding local in person meetups that we have titled Fedora Hatch. If you want to participate in an in person meetup, make sure to read on and suggest your ideas on the Flock pagure!
