From The Document Foundation Wiki
I am a member of The Document Foundation since May 2011. If you'd like to join the project and apply for membership take a look at the Membership Criteria section of the foundation's bylaws.
I am mostly interested in professional training and migration to FLOSS. I live in Montreal, Canada where I propose my consulting and coaching services. LibreOffice is part of my current training, workshops and services.
I am focusing my contributions to LibreOffice in the following areas:
- Advocacy & Marketing
- I created a LibO DVD distribution specifically for my area (Quebec, Canada). I estimate I have distributed ~600 such DVDs so far (as of April 2012).
- Bug reporting and triaging
- FreeDesktop.org LibreOffice bug reports in which I have participated
- Ubuntu LibreOffice bugs in which I have participated
- Documentation & translation (English, French)
- Wiki gardening
- Advocacy/marketing documentation: my LibO DVD distribution how-to
- User docs: Ubuntu LibO installation (English, French)
- Providing professional services
- Here are about the training & workshops I offer (French)
- I am also helping other local FOSS services providers migrate their current OOo training offer
- Self-support through several resources:
- IRC online chat presence on #libreoffice and #libreoffice-fr
- Ask LibreOffice - the official Q&A site for LibO. I joined in Feb. 2012 and quickly became a moderator. I prefer Shapado (see below) but in the spirit of advancing LibreOffice as a team project, I also participate in this site.
- http://libreoffice.shapado.com - I launched this in Feb. 2011 and have been advocating it use since then. Unfortunately discussions around having "official forums" get all the attention and it doesn't seem to be a priority to offer a FLOSS multi-lingual Q&A site.
- http://fr.libreofficeforum.org/ - Although not an official forum, I helped launch this by providing a French localization to its user interface and moderating it initially.
