Introduction

I am a 16 years old student living in France and have been using Ubuntu since hoary, when I really began to use Linux on my desktop.

My first contribution to Ubuntu was translation at the end of the dapper cycle. For edgy, I started packaging (thanks [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gauvain Gloubiboulga]'s sessions in #ubuntu-fr-classroom :-]) and bug triaging.

Main contributions to Ubuntu

• French translation (member of [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-fr ubuntu-l10n-fr])

• Packaging (member of [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-universe-contributors universe-contributors], see next section)

• Bug triage and quality assurance (member of [https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad the BugSquad] and of [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-qa the QA team])

Packaging

I package some new programs, try to fix bugs, help with merges/syncs, make sure that the programs in universe and multiverse are not out of date.

Some points about universe/multiverse and MOTU I feel important:

• Collaboration with Debian: report as much bugs as possible in Debian to avoid useless merge workload (and also to improve Debian in the meantime )

• QA: I mean look for important bug fixes available in Debian, fix unmet deps or other easy-to-fix bugs (such as rebuilds) that makes a package unusable, etc. *before* the release Of course the problem is the huge number of packages we have to take care of.

• Help those who are not (yet) MOTU, enthusiasts and hopefuls, to contribute to universe and multiverse. It includes REVU and uploads sponsoring. As a MOTU I will try to do that

Thanks to [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gauvain Gloubiboulga] who is my main mentor/sponsor and also to [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DanielTChen crimsun]. Another thanks to [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MichaelBienia geser] for uploading some of my packages since he is a MOTU My other sponsors include [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BarrydeFreese bddebian], [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JeremieCorbier Toadstool] and [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JordanMantha LaserJock].

New packages

For these packages, I always contact upstream when doing the initial packaging; it's easier to maintain a package when having good relationships with upstream. I'm subscribed to the bugs of these packages and track the new upstream releases.

• [https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/djplay/ DJPlay] (edgy)

• [https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/giplet/ Giplet] (edgy)

• [https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/homebank/ HomeBank] (feisty)

• [https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdjconsole/ libdjconsole] (feisty)

I now maintain DJPlay and libdjconsole in Debian. See http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=adri2000@gmail.com

Packaging in progress (on REVU or not yet)

• [http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3540 Cuiterm]

Testimonials

[GauvainPocentek]: Adrien has been very active in the MOTU world since the edgy release, working on new packages, bugfixes and merges. He also helps newcomers on #ubuntu-motu, and on the french IRC channels. No doubt he will become a MOTU himself soon!

"DanielTChen": For several months, Adrien has been an asset in #ubuntu-bugs, where he has worked diligently and consistently with newcomers and experienced personnel alike. For slightly longer, he has also been very active in universe with merges/syncs and packaging. I'm happy to welcome him to the Ubuntu community as an official member!
