About me:

I'm a 20 year-old Computer Science student in the French engineering school ENSI of Bourges. I currently study computer security, and I intend to do a master of research and a PhD in the years to come (either in algorithmic, network or security).

I've been contributing to free software for about a year, by working on the Xubuntu Linux distribution, as well as several pieces of software (Exaile and tiny bits of Xfce, mostly).

If there is anything you want to know about me, please contact me directly.

Involvement:

I am volatile and contribute to several projects, without warranty that I will still spend time on them tomorrow. I merely work on what I can work on, and on what I believe I can be useful at anything.

I have contributed to the following projects in the past:

• Xubuntu, an XFCE based GNU/Linux distribution, contributing to various ways, by reviewing applications for use in Xubuntu, writing software meant to improve user experience, translating apps and documentation, and mostly by pissing the Xubuntu developers off all day long with my opinions.
• Exaile, a python music player, as an external developer proposing feature- and bugfix- patches as a consequence for it's use in Xubuntu – I'm very likely to keep working on Exaile when I find time for it

I also wrote (and am meant to maintain) the following software:

• RezTorrent, a CLI bittorrent client with very little dependencies, as it's lead developer. RZ is currently not maintained since I can't find the time to do the code re-factoring it requires.
• Xfce4 Volume Daemon, as it's developer and maintainer. XVD is used to control the volume keys and show synchronous volume notifications in Xubuntu.

I am currently working on school projects, and am also meant to work on the Shimmer Project.
