About me

Name: Julia Bley / Aleksandra Fedorova
FAS username: jbley
How do you primarily contribute to Fedora?: Given my limited technical expertise I love to organize this event and support the CPE team in any capacity (e.g. step in for a CPE status update, FOSDEM) to ensure Fedora's initiatives are supported. I also sponsor the Community Design Team and help to resolve conflicts, prioritization, approaches etc.

This event & Fedora

Are you a speaker or presenter? If yes, give the title and description of your presentation: We asked for talk proposals. I can always do a pub quiz, the Process for the wallpaper design, Community Platform Engineering update if needed
Are you an organizer or volunteer? If yes, explain your role: Organizer - initiating & organizing the event, collecting registrations, ensuring access to to the RH office and that things are prepared in advance
Why is it a good idea for the Fedora Project to have a presence?: Besides conferences there are hardly any events for the Fedora community and the release of a new Version is an amazing opportunity to come together and celebrate, connect, create awareness & visibility.
Why do you want to represent the Fedora community here?: having a place to connect with like minded people everything around Fedora & strengthening the community, building a stronger network around Fedora & open source, creating visibility and awareness around Fedora primarily for community members but also people who are interested to know more about Fedora and its community
