About me

My name is Yannick Mauray. I am also known in some corners of the internet as the French guy from Switzerland.

In my day job, I am a software and web app developper. I regularly write programs in C#, PHP, Python, and Javascript. I used to write programs in Java, Groovy, Scala, and many other languages running on the JVM.

I discovered Ubuntu with the Hardy Heron (8.04), and I have been using it ever since in some shape or another. I did use other linux distributions, either at home or at work, but I always come back to Ubuntu after a while. I currently run Ubuntu proper on my main desktop machine, and Ubuntu MATE on the laptop.

I am a geek, and a maker. I spend most of my free time coding stuff, doing some woodworking, soldering wires to various single board computers, 3D printing objects with various degrees of usefullness, or even doing crochet !

I am also the host and producer of two podcasts : Tea, Earl Grey, Hot !, an unofficial Star Trek fan podcast, and Makers Corner, a tech oriented DIY podcast.

I recently joined the Ubuntu MATE team, to help with the rewrite of the Software Boutique.
