~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am a French / British binational and was born in The Netherlands. I
have lived in The Netherlands, France, the US and Sweden, and enjoy
the cultural diversity that comes with this sort of lifestyle! I am an
engineer by training, more specifically in the field of
telecommunications.
[...]
The more I got acquainted with the Free Software world, the more I was
impressed by the thousands of people out there volunteering time and
effort to develop software and provide support to the users. I have
doing my best to give back what I can to the community. I wrote a
kernel module and some utilities to support a portable MP3 player I
use under Linux (http://mpf70.sourceforge.net/). I also helped my
father rewrite in C++ a sail design package called Sailcut he has been
writing for years and convinced him to make it Free Software
(http://sailcut.sourceforge.net/). This project is very rewarding as
it has an active user base of both professional and amateur users. I
also maintain Diogenes, a content management system
(http://opensource.polytechnique.org/diogenes/) which has been in the
Debian Archive (package "diogenes") for a couple of months thanks to
my sponsor Matthew Palmer.
As far as contributing to Debian is concerned, I would like to start
by packaging web-related applications and help improve existing ones.
To this end I have submitted a number of patches for wwwconfig-common,
which Ola Lundqvist recently applied and uploaded. I am also
interested in helping mentoring potential new maintainers. Later on I
would quite like to look into things such as the debian-installer as
this has a big impact on how users experience Debian.
2. Philosophy and Procedures
-----------------------------
Jeremy has a good understanding of Debians Philosophy and
Procedures. He answered all my Questions about Social Contract,
DFSG, BTS etc. in a good way.
3. Tasks and Skills
-------------------
Jeremy is Maintainer of diogenes, a Package in Debian (sponsored by Matthew
Palmer).
He also answered my other Questions regarding T&S without problems.
4. Recommendation
-----------------
I recommend to accept him as a Debian Developer.
