Call for contributions: Sysadmin Appreciation Day

21 juin 2019Jason Hibbets1 minutes (temps de lecture)

Sysadmin Appreciation Day is coming up at the end of July, and we're already making plans to celebrate. Here at Enable Sysadmin, we plan to run a series of articles to help promote the day and celebrate the thankless hours that keep everyone's infrastructure up and running.

Here's what we'd like to feature: Send us a brief proposal for an article that you'd like to write for the community. In fact, it doesn't even have to be for Sysadmin Appreciation Day. Do you have a command-line trick that you'd like to share? Perhaps you've been toying with a new open source technology and want to share your experience—yes, we want that, too.

Okay, so maybe you aren't ready for a full blog post, but you still want to share some thoughts. Send us a short paragraph about the following topics:

Recommend a gift for sysadmins
Recommend a book for sysadmins
Share a tool for the sysadmin in a hurry
Share some career advice for up-and-coming sysadmins
Share a sysadmin horror story or the ultimate accomplishment

Feel free to share a separate paragraph for each recommendation and/or experience that sparks an idea. Send your thoughts or proposals to enable-sysadmin@redhat.com.

Due date for submissions: July 5

Follow the hashtag #SysAdminDay to see how others are celebrating, and use the hashtag #EnableSysadmin for your favorite Enable Sysadmin reads.
