Hi All,
As the intro will say, my name is Aoife Moloney and I have joined the CPE team two weeks ago as their Feature Driver (I elaborate a little more on my role below :) ).
To increase our teams visibility, I've started to send out a weekly high level update email blast to the devel lists in CentOS & Fedora on a Friday outlining what our team has worked on/is currently working on.
But, I never subscribed to the CentOS-devel list until yesterday, so the email never landed!
Please see forwarded email update that went out last Friday.
I wanted to send it to this list so you have context for this Fridays email update when it goes out, which will definitely land with you this week as intended - scouts honor :)
Thanks and have a great day!
Aoife
---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Aoife Moloney amoloney@redhat.com Date: Fri, Sep 27, 2019 at 2:18 PM Subject: CPE Team Weekly Update To: centos-devel@centos.org, devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, < infrastructure@lists.fedoraproject.org>
Hi everyone,
I’d like to introduce myself first, my name is Aoife Moloney and I recently started with the Community Platform Engineering (CPE) team. My role within this team is going to be a hybrid role of a Product Owner / Project Manager.
As part of that, I want to send a weekly update to the lists to give an insight into what the CPE team have worked on over the past week or so. This will also be mirrored as a higher level blog to give maximum visibility.
We, as a team, welcome your input and comments and please do let us know how we can improve this community facing information segment!
As you know, the CPE team looks after interests in both Fedora and CentOS, so this update is also going to include work done on areas that are not your Community, but for transparency, we are including it :)
