Zoltan Hoppar

Fabian is a very talented packager, and maintainer within the Fedora project. I know him well, and I'm always proud to work with him as it shares his knowledge. He is smart, accurate, and kind person - and I'm always glad that whenever is possible that we can work together within FOSS.

Jonathan Steffan

Fedora EMEA will continue to expand the role that Free Open Source Software will play in the worldwide collaboration of passionate developers. Good work.
