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]:

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...
Most of the work I've done is helping with MUTO stuff. I start thinking about becoming a MOTU myself...
