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. What we do is gather the Fedoristas who live in Paris and have diner more or less every 2 weeks, and more if the night goes on. Of course, we all already know each other on IRC or on the [http://forums.fedora-fr.org forums], so those meetings are more a way 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 can be geared towards Fedora but it is not mandatory. We are not a LUG, Fedora is merely what brought us together. Put in other words, [http://blog.fedora-fr.org/fedora-paris Fedora | Paris] aims at seeing what lays beyond the geeky mask. [http://blog.fedora-fr.org/fedora-paris Fedora | Paris] is also responsible of providing the restaurants and after parties for the Fedora Community regarding events organized in Paris. As a result, we are proud to count [[User:Mspevack|Max Spevack]] and [[User:Ynemoy|Yaakov Nemoy]] as international guests (as well as the French community members who don't live in Paris but gave us a visit).

Under pressure (and guidance) from [[User:Mrtom|Thomas Canniot]], I became a [[Ambassadors|Fedora Ambassador]] in June 2008.
 
As of February 2009, I am the assistant secretary of the [http://asso.fedora-fr.org Fedora-Fr NPO].
 
=== Development ===
 
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. Let's hope Shomyu can replace it if it ever gets in a working enough shape.
I maintain [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/bochecha some packages] in Fedora and EPEL.


=== Events ===
Under pressure (and guidance) from [[User:Mrtom|Thomas Canniot]], I became a [[Ambassadors|Fedora Ambassador]] in June 2008. I have been an Ambassador mentor from March 2010, when [[User:Jsimon|Joerg Simon]] appointed me, to March 2012.


I participated in the organization of several [[:Category:Events_in_France|events in France]].
I have also been the assistant secretary of the [http://www.borsalinux-fr.org/ Borsalinux-Fr NPO], from 2009 to 2011, back when it was still called Fedora-Fr.


== Plans for 2010 ==
These days, I'm mostly hacking on Fedora build/releng infrastructure projects like [https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi Bodhi] and [http://cangjians.github.io the Cangjie/Quick Chinese input methods].


Here's what I want to do for 2010:
{{ #fedorabadges: bochecha }}


* Help develop more the [[:Category:French_team|french speaking community]] and have it work in a less "insular" way.
[[Category:Ambassadors_from_France]]
** [[User:Mrtom|Thomas]] and I published our [[Fedora-Fr_annual_report_2009 | 2009 activities and financial report]] and we will continue doing the same each year, which is a great first step in communicating on our actions
[[Category:Ambassadors_from_China]]
** let's try and find more ways to have better relationship with the rest of the broader community
* Collaborate more with the [http://olpc-france.org OLPC-France] association, share events with them, ...
* Put to use the XO that I bought and help the OLPC / Sugar projects.
* Have [https://fedorahosted.org/shomyu shomyu] actually used by some community (which means "start coding, you lazy me !" :)
** So far, it seems like the Fedora, Mozilla, Mandriva-Fr, Slitaz and Ubuntu-Fr communities '''might''' be interested in using shomyu \o/

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 maintain some packages 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 Fedora build/releng infrastructure projects like Bodhi and the Cangjie/Quick Chinese input methods.
