Jérémie "Toadstool" Corbier

I am a 20 year-old french guy. I study telecommunications engineering in Brest, France. I am particularly interested in the current deployment of IPv6. I am also network and system administrator of the [http://resel.fr/ ResEl] association. We deal with a 500 machines students network and we provide some services such as 17 TV channels on LAN or @resel.fr Jabber accounts to our members. The whole services are powered by 12 Debian servers.

Linux and me

I have been using GNU/Linux since November 2000. My first experience was with a Debian Potato I installed on my parents' old computer. As I did not have a permanent nor efficient Internet connection at that time I had to wait for Woody release to discover a little further this world.

I use Ubuntu since Warty was released. At that time I was thrilled by this distribution because it was the first to work out of the box on my laptop. I have been an Ubuntu user since then and I have decided to help making Dapper the best Linux distro ever released.

I have organized 4 Ubuntu Install Parties (about 60 attendees each time) in my engineering school.

Packaging and developments

  • I am the Debian maintainer for [http://sourceforge.net/projects/wide-dhcpv6/ wide-dhcpv6], a well-programmed DHCPv6 solution. I got the first version included in Universe thanks to MOTU reviewers. I am working on a better integration of the client in the system (it will certainly be released in Debian wide-dhcpv6 version 20060322-2). I will try to get the latest version included in Dapper.

  • I have worked with Debian Lintian Maintainers and asked them to reserve -D and --debian options for Debian derivatives such as Ubuntu. I am now working on a Lintian patch to better include Ubuntu specific checks. The -D switch will be used to get back to Debian behaviour.
