Lucas Nussbaum Application 2008

I'm a free-software developer living in Lyon, France. I've been an {J,X}SF member since 2004. I haven't been very active lately, but I'm still deeply interested into XMPP/Jabber.

XMPP4R
When I started XMPP4R four years ago, I didn't expect that it would get so largely used. Apparently it's now a very popular library. Project lead was handed over to Stephan Maka, but I'm still around, trying to help. I'm also maintaining the library's Debian package.

Statistics about our users community
For the past years, I've been running statistics on the market shares of XMPP clients (stats for 2008). When time will permit, I'd like to work on more stats. For example, it would be interesting to generate data about the size of the public jabber network (number of servers and users), of course while preserving the users' privacy.
