    Where Fedora Linux Could Improve

    The Fedora Project is a great organization to gain experience no matter the team you are in. I am currently a part of the Fedora Websites & Apps team improving my technical writing, communication and design skills.

    With all the things the Fedora Project does well, there are several places that, in my opinion, need to be improved. Id like to go over some key areas where we could improve Fedora Linux from a user perspective without breaking the Fedora Projects core philosophies.

    Faster base64 in curl
    [08:02] schestowitz
    [08:02] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-Faster base64 in curl | daniel.haxx.se [08:02] schestowitz

    This adventure started with an issue where a user pointed out that the libcurl function for base64 encoding actually would allocate a few bytes too many at times.

    [08:02] schestowitz

    That turned out to be true and we fixed it fairly quickly.

    [08:02] schestowitz

    As I glanced at that base64 encoder function that was still loaded and showing in my editor window, it struck me that it really was not written in an optimal way.
