Subject: DC ACM Fall Event Series: The Fedora Project

Fedora is not just a Linux distribution, but an entire project that
builds open source software communities. On Thursday, October 28th,
fellow DC ACM Member, Paul W. Frields, will discuss the Fedora Project
and his experience in building and nurturing communities as well as
some of the lessons learned through those experiences.

Paul W. Frields has been a Linux user and enthusiast since 1997, and
joined the Fedora Documentation Project in 2003, shortly after the
launch of Fedora. As contributing writer, editor, and a founding
member of the Fedora Board, Paul has worked on a variety of tasks,
including guides and tutorials, website publishing, and toolchain
development. He also maintains a number of packages in the Fedora
repository. In February 2008, Paul joined Red Hat as the Fedora
Project Leader, where he oversaw six releases of the distribution. He
currently is an operations manager for Red Hat, and lives with his
wife and two children in Virginia.
