What is your FAS Username and Nick?

decathorpe / @decathorpe:fedora.im

What Matrix Channels do you tend to use?

Too many to list them all: #devel, #rust, #epel, #multimedia, #pride, #python, #quality, #security, ... (on the fedoraproject.org homeserver)

What kind of experience do you have which might be relevant to the role? E.g Governance, leadership, etc.

I have served as a member of FESCo for six terms since I joined the project, and have also been a member of the Packaging Committee for over eight years now. In these roles (among others) I have gathered experience in a variety of both technical and non-technical areas including problem resolution, technical discussions, project management, technical writing / documentation, organizing meetings, etc.

What do you see as potential opportunities and risks for the Fedora Project?

I think it will be increasingly important to keep the balance between what makes Fedora successful and things that end up being costly distractions - to continue integrating new technologies into a modern, but stable distribution, while avoiding adoption of dead-end or unsustainable technologies from the current hype cycle.

What brought you to the Fedora Project?

Fedora is where my distro-hopping days unexpectedly ended a little over a decade ago. It has felt like home since.
