Excellent; you are starting in a good place within Fedora.  From here
you'll be able to see into many places and decide what else is
interesting to you.

You may want to look into fedora-music-list; it's been mainly technical
about e.g. Planet CCRMA.  One great thing about free software is how
many people have talents and interests in other areas.  Always dynamic
people doing interesting things!

Welcome!

Done.  Thanks for the reminder, it sometimes takes us a while to notice
people's requests.

You'll also want to request access to the new 'cvsl10n' group; we are
currently working on bringing documentation translation back into the
Fedora infrastructure.  Keep your eyes open here and on
fedora-trans-list for more details.
