> + What do you want to write about?
>     Trogdor. And love.

>     Well, http://www.fedorafaq.org/ for one. :-)

>
> + What level and type of computer skills do you have?
>     Amazing.
>
> + What other skills do you have that might be applicable? User interface
>   design, other so-called soft skills (people skills), programming, etc.
>     I am really, really good at talking to people. I'm also really good
> at explaining how things work.
>
>     I'm also particularly good at taking very busted, messy processes or
> code and making them shine in the morning light.
>
> + What makes you an excellent match for the project?
>     Me and the project have been going steady for about two years, now.
> I think we might get engaged.
