Free softwares involvment

Lilypond

I am one of the french translators of the [http://lilypond.org Lilypond website]. Lilypond is the "GNU Music Typesetter," and I do my best to help people using it. To do so, I've built a small website, [http://gnu-pond.tuxfamily.org GNU-Pond], which provides tips and tricks for french-speaking users. I also moderate the french Lily mailing list.

Ubuntu involvement

I do my best to help new Ubuntu users, in live discussions on #ubuntu-fr and on the [http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org ubuntu-fr.org forum].

I wrote some wiki pages on [http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org]:

Packages

Accepted New packages

In progress (on REVU)

I've also worked on [http://netswitch.tuxfamily.org libswitch and gswitch], which are now netswicth and gnetswitch (Packaged by AnthonyMercatante)

I've been involved in the Xfce 4.4 transition, by packaging some goodies for the new panel:

Reviews

I've commented some packages on REVU:

and a few others.BR Helping new packagers with comments on REVU, or on irc is a really important and interesting task Smile :)

Syncs / Merges

Bugs

I've worked on triaging bugs, reported some and fixed a few.

Some bugs I've reported: [https://launchpad.net/bugs/4450 lilypond], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/5978 denemo], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/5340 xfce4], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6195 mozilla], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6303 anjuta], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6425 OOo 1.1.5], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/28136 gimp]

Some fixed bugs: [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6437 gnome-schedule], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/4673 blobwars], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6598 ipy], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/30339 libxfcegui4], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/32771 gproftpd], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/6486 python2.4-biopython-martel], [https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/30437 kxl], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/33311 gkrelldnet]...

I've also worked on the missing deps due to the OCaml transition (thanks sistpoty): 15 packages debugged, but a rebuild was enough for most of them... Wink ;)

Some "in progress" bugs: [https://launchpad.net/bugs/33806 siptoolbox], [https://launchpad.net/bugs/18803 libdts]

I've also worked on GOffice and Gnumeric to get gtk/GNOME multibuild packages. Gnumeric is now available for Xubuntu without the GNOME deps!

Plans

Keep helping the best I can! That means:

  • packaging
  • helping new packagers
  • making Xubuntu rock even more
  • translating some u.c wiki pages for the french community
  • installing Ubuntu everywhere I can...
