Contributor Stories are just that: the record of our best moments with our Fedora friends. The story can be about our work in Fedora or something personal or unique which you would like to share with the community. Contributor Stories are a part of Fedora Appreciation Week, starting in November 2023 to commemorate 20 years of the Fedora Project.

Stories

The purpose of Contributor Stories is to recognize a contributor who impacted you at any time in Fedora. Let them know what you are thankful for and share a common memory or experience you remember. Taking the time to single out someone to give thanks is one of the best ways to make a personal impact.

This is a simple but powerful form to show our appreciation for a fellow Fedora community member. Openly expressing appreciation, gratitude, or happiness to other people can be difficult. This is especially true when we do not know them very well. Contributor Stories help us express good memories and reach out to the people we appreciate.

Examples

See the Contributor Stories repo from 2018 for past stories shared by community members. You can see the published Contributor Stories on the Community Blog.

How to submit a story?

Contributor Stories are collected as new issues in this project. To add a story, open a new issue and fill out the template.

How the stories will be used

During Fedora Appreciation Week, new Community Blog articles and social media posts will be published each day with excerpts of Contributor Stories.
