So, the issue here seems to be "how do I know which one to follow?" - this is a common issue on the web tbh, too much information - but how does one decide what a good source of information is? I see two solutions. One is experience - when I began, I didn't know either. Now that I've been around for a while, I know what pages the FPC does, and in my head, these are the official documents. The second solution is simply to ask someone. This brings us back to the mentoring discussion.. - -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJXxghuAAoJEPjYwL66yJi9vnYIAI7ndsntuWEzzLxAOajY5vg5 lIsADR8GGgBqcfpZlPMc91d6f8UojJYn2VnbB72gTcXIovV8TbFjONvrqzcy2TYj EfK6gM08bOVymPiewRVOPNOAirKu3WGpHjJLm2juD1OdxnpU10n4nVBpTCPNddDa dgASHJt7OMJopu0crG2mT+OcaCL30bzOLd1uDtBC1rOv+VZQCXChpnyF4CFONzHi YmYI4BONawOZwkFql9XllzHfO830rCxLJB/vq6V4+RjiXMnQ/pncGbVvDi6qrOgV fp8pY0IjcFacrmZjiHvmWMX188CnfUmdbW5HZwiizILlmITWCwbnnvOHCul86fw= =b3TP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ fedora-join mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
