General presentation

Hello!

My name Jean-Baptiste Kempf, I am a student in one of the 'Grandes Ecoles', best scientific schools and university in France: the "Ecole Centrale Paris".

I also got a Master Degree in Computer Science from the University of Paris. I will have pretty soon my degree "Ingénieur de l'école Centrale Paris", which is also a Master Degree.

I am now an intern in STMicroelectronics.

I am working on the VideoLAN project in many aspects, but not only on the devs aspects.

As a dev, I mostly program Qt4 interface. I also work a lot on contribs and external libraries. I have built VLC media player on most possible platform (no BeOS, though).

As a non-dev, I moderate e-mails, worked a lot on this wiki, answer forums and mails, work on the websites and help on IRC. So I do a lot of support.

I am looking for a job, outside France. Interested? :D

jb (at) videolan (d0t) org is my mail, related to VideoLAN. My Website (far from being finished) is my website.

Use my talk page to talk to me or give me some TODOs.

Wiki

I have rewritten a lot of pages on this wiki, and I have more than 1000 edits on this wiki.

Names

I am know under 'j-b', 'jb' on all the VideoLAN Sites
