==== Packaging ====
I've been involved with Fedora since the fedora.us / Red Hat Linux 9 days, second half of 2003. The time I could dedicate to the project has varied a lot over the years, as did the number of packages I maintain.
 
I'm a packager for Fedora Extras. I maintain around 40 packages in Fedora Extras, of which the most famous are:
* amarok
* awstats
* glest
* gwenview
* psi
* pure-ftpd
* php-adodb
* showimg
* tiger
* ulogd
* xine-lib
 
==== QA ====
 
I also do as much QA as I can on the new submission request for Extras.
 
I know a little python and I've written a script to automate these QA checks. You can find it here : http://gauret.free.fr/fichiers/rpms/fedora/fedora-qa
 
The aim of this script is to test all the MUST items in PackageReviewGuidelines which are not covered by rpmlint.
 
This script requires python, mock, rpmlint and yum-utils. To use it, follow these steps:
* Create the rpm build directory structure, for example with fedora-buildrpmtree from the fedora-rpmdevtools package.
* cd to a temp dir (ex: ~/tmp) in a terminal.
* run '''fedora-qa <bugid>''' or '''fedora-qa <srpm>'''
* answer the questions, and a report will be printed. The report and additional files (like binaries, build log, etc...) can be found in the "~/reports/<rpm_name>" directory. The "~/reports" base dir can be configured in ~/.fedora-qa


The script is very likely to give false-positives, so don't take everything it says for granted. The idea is more to show you where to dig.
I've also represented Fedora at various shows in France, mostly Solutions Linux in Paris.


Here are the tests performed (in this order):

==== Help and Communication ====
I've started streaming web development on the Fedora Infrastructure applications: https://twitch.tv/ohwellien. I hope I'll manage to do it regularly.


I'm a [[Mentors| Fedora Mentor]] , which means you should feel free to contact me if you think I can help you as regards to packaging or processes. I'm also a [[Ambassadors| Fedora Ambassador]]  for Paris and its surroundings in France. Feel free to contact me if you live in this area and you want information about Fedora. I'll try to attend as many Linux-related events as I can, see you there !

Participation in the Fedora Project

I've been involved with Fedora since the fedora.us / Red Hat Linux 9 days, second half of 2003. The time I could dedicate to the project has varied a lot over the years, as did the number of packages I maintain.

I've also represented Fedora at various shows in France, mostly Solutions Linux in Paris.

I've been hired by Red Hat to work on Fedora full time since August 2012, and I've worked on Hyperkitty. I now work on various initiatives that the CPE team undertakes. This has included Fedora Messaging, Noggin/FASJSON, Bodhi, Datanommer/Datagrepper, FMN, and others.

I've started streaming web development on the Fedora Infrastructure applications: https://twitch.tv/ohwellien. I hope I'll manage to do it regularly.
