There's a long list of reviews waiting on
https://fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus/NEW.html

The best way imo is to install mock, run fedora-review, and fill-in
all the stuff that fedora-review is not able to answer on its own.
This will require many visits to the Packaging Guidelines and will
show you all the little details.

Yeah. Probably best to think what is the area that interests you,
e.g. what would be interesting for your work as a sys admin.

Hello and thank you.

What is the best direction to get started with doing reviews and or helping
out triaging/fixing bugs.

Just find something in bugzilla to work on ?

Hi,

welcome to Fedora.

Do you want to submit some packages of your own? If yes, it's good
to start with that, you should get some useful advice. Make sure to
mark the review ticket as blocking FE-NEEDSPONSOR.

It usually helps if you do some informal reviews of other packages
or help with triaging or fixing some bugs. It's a required skill for
packagers, and a way to gain experience with the system and to show
that you know what you are doing.

Hello,

I am just starting out with fedora packaging. My background is mostly
working in NOCs, infrastructure support roles and working as sys admin.

Look for forward to learning as much as possible with the hopes of getting
sponsored.
