Professional achievements of which I am proud:
- Open-sourcing RHN Satellite - RHN Satellite was a proprietary Red Hat code. I was part of the team that made this code of million lines open.
- Copr Build system - I have made a Copr build system and made it a strong part of Fedora's ecosystem. I created a strong team around Copr and we contributed to lots of tools that improved packaging experience.
- I was a part of the movement on how we should teach about computers in the Czech Republic at the grammar shool level - I taught lots of kids and teachers.
- Fedora upgrades - A long time ago, an upgrade from Fedora N to Fedora N+1 was not easy and the general practice was to reinstall the whole system. I participated in making the upgrade a more pleasant experience.
- Mapping all Czech postboxes - For OpenStreetMap, I initiated the mapping of postboxes for Brno municipality, but later this grew into mapping all postboxes in the Czech Republic. I coordinated the efforts of other mappers. Aricle about this
- Fedora's SPDX migration - I am part of a group that coordinates the change of license's IDs from the old Callaway system to SPDX. That is 30k tags, thousands of maintainers. As part of this process, we identified many new licenses and assigned an SPDX ID to them.
