[jboss-rpm] Introduction

[Marek Goldmann]

Hiya Seb,

Welcome, it's great to see you here!

Basically there are two tasks where we welcome help:

1. Packaging software - some AS7 dependency required, being comfortable 
with Maven, some introduction to current status, etc.

2. Cleaning up something from review queue.

3. Reviewing submitted requests - Fedora packager status required.

Option #3 is the easiest way to join the effort, but you need to be a 
Fedora packager to do reviews. If you're not, then the #2 approach would 
be the best bet. After you submit your first package someone could 
sponsor you to packager group. After this process - you're free to do 
reviews of submitted packages.

Please let me know if you're a packager and what option is better for 
you and I'll coordinate and help you with your choice!

Thank you!

P.S. We're on IRC in #fedora-java for instant help!
