About Me

Since 2005 (B.A.F.A.) I work for 9 years in children camp on holidays; I believe that gave me some experience in pedagogy, communication, social, mannagement, communication (adapt a talk the public, talk to a public, promote an activity organized in team).

Learning

I have a Master in 'software devlopement and project managment' (2012). When I have free time, I try to learn coding with the Ubuntu SDK (I have some idea of apps).

Adoption

After being bored to "(re)format" often my PC, someone gave me a dvd… I started with mandriva then fedora as an occasionaly user. I discovered ubuntu with 8.04 and after a while I get being member of april; this was the begining of my contribution in the freesoftware (starting with Ubuntu Party of karmic or Lucid). I believe that Ubuntu is the best light to spread freesoftware to humans beings. I am member of the ubuntu-fr board since 2011.

Contributions

Past, current

• A few corrections on the french documentation

• Lecturer of the ubuntu-fr reapproval2012

• co-writter of the ubuntu-fr /Application2014

• Participation on ubuntu-fr forums

• A project called ubuntour. It was supose to show fastly how the desktop is, and especially how the installation is easy (usefull to show online or in event). Work on this is stoped as I decided to work with ubuntu online tour instead. ( it was like that https://ubuntour.toile-libre.org)

• Since the ubuntu online tour is up, I gave up with Ubuntour. Ubuntu Online Tour provide eveything Ubuntour was trying to provide. I think Ubuntu Online Tour is just missing a demo of ubiquity (installation of ubuntu, how it is very easy). I have started to improve it here but ubiquity is not yet implemented.

• I try to make the work of our LoCo as reusable for others LoCo as possible. For example these robots we use for an ubuntu party I shared on http://spreadubuntu.org/fr/material/unusual/ubuntu-robots

• I helped code on ubuntu-fr.org during the Blackout SOPA/PIPA (looks like at the one not yet removed on cm-t.org (but I added a konami code )

• I try to participate on the "Premier Samedi Libre" each first satursday of the month (a monthly install party) but it is was hard in 2014 for me to be there (something like 2/12).

• In my goal to animate our team I organize ubuntu hours in Paris (http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=652521)

• Participation of Ubuntu Party of Paris (~3k visitors) since Karmic (the first as visitor, then as installer, then as responsable of area like 'try desktop', as unity/ubuntu classroom/workshop, as co-organizer of the party: http://todo.ubuntu-party.org/users/30 , and as ubuntu-tv/tablet showcase: Ubuntu TV G+, Some pics I took ). I lead the showcase area of Ubuntu Touch.

• I have lead a project for the iso of ubuntu-fr: Dash-Privacy-Interface. After a meeting with the French CNIL it was designed to ensure that users privacy is respected by trying to modify the lesser the user experience. Some spreads echos before we released it ! We decided that Ubuntu is taking the good steps to not misslead the users with privacy, so we beleive we don't need at this moment the dash privacy interface since 13.10.

• Since 2013 I joinned the team that animate a webcafé in festival like Vielles Charues (~40k visitors) and Papillons de Nuits (~20k visitors). I welcome people there, help them in the discovering of the desktop. Also, I give demo of Ubuntu (Touch) on phone or tablet and I put Ubuntu Circle of friend and Tux tattoos on those visitors who ask for it.
• On reddit:
  • after a talk with /r/technology mods, I made /r/ubuntu appear on its sidebar !

  • mod of /r/ubuntuFr

  • Working to make the /r/ubuntuFr's css easly re-usable for other subreddit like /r/UbuntuAppDev (see https://launchpad.net/redditstyle ). I have to merge /r/ubuntuFr and /r/ubuntuAppDev since they both have been updated separatly.

Future, current Goals

Try to make this page more structured, and more clean (grammer, typo, etc, sorry readders…)

I am a member of the French speaking LoCo team since 2011 and my goals for this membership are: Been more present on events, help to mannage the community and projects/events.

I want to help more in the preparation of ubuntu-party, I want to developp an area with more technologic showcase (like ubuntu-tv, phone, tablet, and futur idea) and grow it to be an attractive area to capt a new public in our events.

In these event I want to help more than before our volunteers; to be more confortable to welcome visitors (visitors who are not especially friendly with term like "operating system", "freesoftware", "ubuntu", "internet VS google VS browser" ...)

• provide tools to ubunteros that guide to popularize notion. For example : to be able to welcome people on own events, explain what is freesoftware and ubuntu in few second, not making the visitor leave but coming in, without looking especially commercial. To make it happend, I have some ideas : tupperware meeting, round table, and a website "bille" (tips) about how to popularize a technical subject in a talk, blog post, … to train ourself together by sharing experience and idea.

I want Unity8 a success for Ubuntu, so I try to contribute to it by using it as my main mobile OS since June 2014, translate (lp) in french some click app/unity8, and report some bugs (lp) to help improving the quality. I hope this release will drop away issues with privacy (privacy is an issues in France, people are aware of it: on news papers/tv show everydays)
