This page honors the former members of the Fedora Mindshare Committee who contributed their time and energy to Fedora’s outreach mission. Thank you for your service to the Fedora community.

In Fedora 43, the Mindshare Committee restructured from team-based appointed representatives to a streamlined model with elected Program Administrators and two appointed positions (Community Ops and Marketing Team representatives).
