Helping Fedora
I have been introduce to Red Hat Systems in Universtity, and quickly start to use it as my main OS at home. I discovered Fedora a few months before Fedora Core 2 had been released and I received all the help I needed from french Fedora community. I get involved and started been part of French community staff in 2004. Currently,
- I am a founder member of French Fedora Association http://asso.fedora-fr.org, and member of its board;
- I am a community manager of french fedora forums;
- I also write articles and do some proof-readings for french documentation project.

In order to promote Fedora Linux locally, BenoîtMarcelin and I initiated the first local monthly meetings in Lyon (France). Fedora|Paris quickly followed, in the better way than ours, we have to admit. They launched a nice blog : Fedora | Paris, so did we :-) at Fedora | Lyon
I also (not that often) maintain my own blog : http://blog.fedora-fr.org/pingoomax
