I do like that. My turn, then.

I am the maintainer of Scute, GnuPG’s PKCS#11 module [1]. Currently, my
primary goal regarding Scute is to make it work with EdDSA keys. As of
now Scute only supports RSA keys, and I am no longer happy with that
since I first got my hands on a Gnuk token. :)

I also occasionally contribute patches to other components of GnuPG,
notably the Pinentry collection.

Beyond GnuPG, I have my own software projects that I wrote over the
years. They are all available on my personal forge [2] for anyone
interested, and of course, they are all free/libre software. The project
that has kept me busy in the past few weeks is Pebble, a command-line
client for Nextcloud’s password manager application Passman [3].

I have written introductory articles (unfortunately in French language
only) on topics related to GnuPG, something I intend to continue doing.
Those articles are typically published both on my own website and on
“linuxfr.org”, a French community website about free software. As an
example, my last article in June 2018 was a presentation of Gnuk, NeuG,
and the FST-01 [4].

Finally, since October 2017 I am a regular “trainer” in cryptoparties
that are held on a monthly basis in London, UK. I animate workshops on
topics such as e-mail encryption, secure messaging, full-disk
encryption, or privacy in the “cloud era”; during those workshops I
advocate the use of free software.

I guess that’s it for me.

PS: Oh, and my *real* job, the one that pays me and allows me to spend
some time on all of the above, is that of a life scientist who uses
fruit flies to understand how cancers develop. :)
