I've been using Fedora since Fedora Core 5 (Bordeaux, what a wonderful name :-). Since then, I've been an active member in the [[:Category:French_team|French community]].
[[User:Melmorabity|Mohamed Elmorabity]] and I co-founded the [http://blog.fedora-fr.org/fedora-paris Fedora | Paris] project. The goal was to know the non-geek-side of each other, and build [http://www.nalley.sc/david/?p=59 friendship] inside our community. The subjects of conversation could be geared towards Fedora but it was not mandatory. We are not a LUG, Fedora is merely what brought us together.

=== Development ===
 
Apart from minor contributions to several projects, I am a core contributor to the following projects.
 
==== IBus Cangjie ====
The support for the Cangjie and Quick input methods (the two most widely used in Hong Kong) used to be terrible. Along with Wan Leung Wong, we initiated [http://ibus-cangjie.opensource.hk IBus Cangjie] to change that.
 
==== PyF ====
I also contribute to the [http://pyfproject.org PyF framework]. PyF is a pure Python framework for building flow-based applications, that is applications that can handle '''lots''' of data without ever loading more than one item in memory at a time, thus being highly scalable.
 
PyF was mostly part of my previous work though, so even if I maintain good relationships with the community, I haven't done any contribution ever since I moved to Hong Kong.
 
==== Shomyu ====
I initiated [http://fedorahosted.org/shomyu Shomyu]. The goal is to provide a web application for members of a community to locate themselves and add a short description about them.
 
Shomyu was born after frustration from not being able / wanting to use the proprietary Frappr service that [http://www.fedora-fr.org Fedora-Fr] was using at this time. The hope was thatShomyu could eventually replace it if it ever got in a working enough shape.


Unfortunately, due to a lack of time, this project has been on hold for a while.
These days, I'm mostly hacking on [https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi Bodhi 2] and [http://ibus-cangjie.opensource.hk supporting the Cangjie Chinese input method in IBus].

Mathieu Bridon

I'm a French system/software engineer, currently working as Linux Platform Developer for a managed security services company in Hong-Kong, where I build our custom distribution from EL and Fedora packages (in Fedora-speak, I do packaging, sysadmin-build and releng).

I also am a Novell CLP and a RHCE.

I maintain some packages both in Fedora and EPEL.

Under pressure (and guidance) from Thomas Canniot, I became a Fedora Ambassador in June 2008.

I have been an Ambassador mentor from March 2010, when Joerg Simon appointed me, to March 2012.

I have also been the assistant secretary of the Borsalinux-Fr NPO, from 2009 to 2011, back when it was still called Fedora-Fr.

These days, I'm mostly hacking on Bodhi 2 and supporting the Cangjie Chinese input method in IBus.
