About me

Hi, I'm YoBoY, one of the current French documentation administrators. I discovered Ubuntu in 2005 after having tried a lot of other distribution since 1998 and really using it since 2007.

I love cooking for my friends, all of them like my wonderful chocolate cake ;-).

Community Involvement

• Actually one of the Ubuntu-fr administrator in charge of the french documentation. I try to make the documentation more user friendly, more accessible for the beginners.
• I'm in the French team who organize the Ubuntu Party in Paris since 2009 where I run the bug jams. I'm also in charge of the Staff Room where the team can eat and rest during the two days of the party.
• I run the Doc Jam in the last Global Jam and also for the next who is coming.
• I participate each month on the "Premier Samedi du Libre". It is an Install Party with other distributions (mandriva, fedora, debian and ubuntu).
• I try some time to help on the French channel #ubuntu-fr
• In the past i made some Bug Triaging, but don't have time now to do it anymore.

Future Hopes

Well, for the future I'll try to make the French documentation more easy to maintain. I'll continue to help to organize the next Ubuntu Party in Paris, and also other events.

I also hope to make the best chocolate cake ever.

DidierRoche: YoBoY is doing a lot of work on ubuntu-fr documentation, as well as ubuntu-fr event where he actively participate in. I recommend him as an Ubuntu member due to its active work as a core and essential member of the french community.

BUGabundo : I initially met YoBoY in #ubuntu-bugs while I was looking for help going over some of my old and still open bugs. He was generous enough to apply his time on going over a couple hundred bugs way faster then I would have managed to be. Since then, he has been also a regular presence in #ubuntu-pt helping local users, even besides the culture difference. I had the chance to meet him personally last year, and confirmed he is a darn nice guy! I support his Membership for all his past and current work for the Community and FLOSS ecosystem
