Hello, I'm still interested in contributing to this SIG and would like to hear back from members. I understand everyone may be busy and I don't expect an immediate response, but I'd like to know more about potential areas I could contribute to. Thanks.

Hello,
First off, my apologies for the poor etiquette of not introducing myself before.
My name is David Sastre, I work as a Cloud Architect for Red Hat in the EMEA region. My background is in system administration, identity management, security and automation. These days more focused in OpenShift and all things containers.
I have always had an interest in ham radio, but never had enough time, motivation or money at the same time to commit to it properly. Now might be a good time. As a complete newbie to this field, I'm reading a lot, preparing to take my exam and get licensed. In my country, Spain, there are a few amateur radio associations, I'm a member of the URE (www.ure.es), where I've been assigned a temporary listening-only indicative (EA6325URE) until I get the definitive one.
In the meantime, I've been using some of the already packaged software available in Fedora, and filled a couple of BZs (nothing really relevant), in order to, at least, have something to prove my interest in this SIG and my willingness to contribute.

I'm also interested in the (obviously) closely related field of electronics. I'm completely self-tought, so may I ask the group to bear with me while I learn the ropes.
Cheers!
