History
- In 1996, I discovered both the internet, Linux, Free Software and IRC
- (I don't remember when) I discovered first ICQ, then Yahoo! Messenger (at that time Yahoo! Pager) and then... Jabber !
- Then I just watched Jabber grow
- XMPP was published as an IETF standard in 2004
- I got involved in the french Jabber community at JabberFR.org
Jabber/XMPP Projects
Code
- None. Sorry. I know only two languages: french and english.
- I sometimes report bugs and suggest features... that help other people code (better)
- Does wiki code count for code?
Documentation
- I have contributed to: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jabber
- I have contributed to the JabberFR Wiki: http://wiki.jabberfr.org
- I blog about Jabber/XMMP and the related areas at: http://nyco.wordpress.com/
- I write news and journals on: http://linuxfr.org
- And I have made many tiny contributions of all forms

Plans for the future
- Make people know
- Make people understand
- Make people switch
- Make people adopt
- Find the killer-app
- Understand, document and share
Why I like XMPP
Because, it's:
- fun
- modern
- rapidly-evolving
- an open standard
- got an open and open-minded community
- the féderating IMP system
Why I'm re-applying
- Because it's cool to be a member
- Because it counts as a vote in XSF
- Because I'm an active evangelist and I want to do more (even if it's not easy to contribute time)
- Because you're taken more seriously when you propose talks if you're an XSF member
- To stay in constant contact with XMPP technologies
- To follow their evolutions
