Introduction

2017-06-27 Thread Bijal Thanawala
Hi all,

I am Bijal Thanawala. My background is software development (of relevancy
here - C, Python) with some systems-level programming.

My long-term vision is to develop for operating systems architecture |
networking protocols.

I have been a Linux user past nearly 9 years, of which last 4 or so years I
am a Fedora user.

By joining QA community I wish to learn about build|release processes at
larger scale, fill in gaps in my knowledge of Linux, understand the very
platform (Fedora) I use daily better,  and gradually take on contributing
to Linux Kernel or like.

To start with, I have already created FAS account, mid-way into Sumantro's
recorded "Global onboarding call" (youtube) and looking at how to create
IRC account.

Please guide me if there is anything else at this stage I need to have
ready.

Looking forward to collaborate and learn.

Best Regards
Bijal
