| 5 | I am Stéphane Ribas, a french "lucky" boy, as I lived the rise of the internet, its infrastrucutre, its protocols, its applications but as well as the rise of the open source movement. I am discret guy who prefers **actions** coupled with a good **communication** - but always behind the scene. | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | **Thanks to my contribution to the POP3 code in 1993 (and other less known oss projects), I get fascinated by the magic of opensouce that shape my carrier since then.** | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | I spent 12 years in software industries & services, mostly in innovative technologies - **open** **source** oriented -. Thanks to the people I meet & the projects I collaborated on, I developed very strong skills in **building & fostering Internet communities.** | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | I joined [[**INRIA**>>url:http://www.inria.fr]], a french public research institute in mathematics & computing, in 2008 to co-lead [[OW2>>url:http://www.ow2.org]] Europe Local Chapter & contribute(d) to several other Open Source projects & consortiums. I wrote several articles on how to "build and sustain Open Source Communities". I presented my ideas and approaches in different conferences. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | Today, I joined the INRIA direction team. I am helping INRIA research teams to create & develop their own communities (**community over code!**), I help them in the choice of : | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | * governance model, | ||
| 16 | * oss licences, | ||
| 17 | * project dev. lyfe cycle | ||
| 18 | * how to animate the project & create a vibrant community. | ||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | I am following them, helping them, monitoring them. | ||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | **Finally, I am recently in charge of helping INRIA, at a national level, on deciding their OSS licences governance & strategy.** | ||

| 49 | **Why should you consider my application ?** | ||
| 50 | |||
| 51 | I am proposing my application through the [[AFUL>>url:http://aful.org]] organisation. This consortium adresses the usage of open source in France by industrials, small companies, & institutions, provide advices & reports to our government, defends users, defend opensource, spend a lot of time to educate, etc.. I am proud to work at their board & I do the interface between AFUL and research institutions in France. I help them also to animate the AFUL community. I have a good knowledge of the french universities & engineering schools eco-system. I have also several industrial contacts. | ||
| 52 | |||
| 53 | By applying to OSI board, I want to bring my help and knowledge to: | ||
| 54 | |||
| 55 | * the daily duties of all board members ;-) | ||
| 56 | * the **animation** of the OSI community, | ||
| 57 | ** asking/answering questions that members have, | ||
| 58 | ** update regularly the website and the social networks media, | ||
| 59 | ** help to organise current initiatives, | ||
| 60 | ** helping in the organisation of the different meetings, improving the architecture of participation if needed. | ||
| 61 | ** facilate the knowledge flow between the community members | ||
| 62 | * the **promotion** the OSI initiative, | ||
| 63 | ** spread the world! | ||
| 64 | ** I would like to increase OSI presence in France. | ||
| 65 | * **attract** new members | ||
| 66 | ** I will first listen and understand the OSI governance, and then propose ideas, | ||
| 67 | ** I will organise some promotion initiatives & presentations about AFUL & OSI in France, //I participate to a lot of conferences,// | ||
| 68 | ** I would also like that INRIA becomes a member of OSI. | ||
| 69 | |||
| 70 | I beleive that **OSI could be more represented in France**, INRIA is a hotspot in France about computing & research, my role at AFUL and at the top management of INRIA give me the availability to spread ideas into the french computing eco-system. | ||
| 71 | |||
| 72 | |||
| 73 | **Thanks!** | ||
| 74 | |||
| 75 | Thanks so much for reading, be sure that I will put all my efforts to represent and advocate OSI the best I can! | ||
