Personal Description :	I have been a supporter of OpenSource software for Geomatics for long. I am working at IGN (French National Mapping Agency) and promotes openness and free software internally (e.g., at IGN's school, namely ENSG -- École Nationale des Sciences Géographiques, Géomatique --) and externally (past contributor to Geoserver, french translations, committer to PROJ.4 and GDAL, user of many OSS). I managed the French Geoportal project, which is based on opensource software like Geoserver, OpenLayer, PROJ.4, GDAL, etc ... and has a big PostgrSQL/PostGIS backend.I am also involved in local chapter's FOSS4G and member of the FOSS4G Europe 2017 organizing committee (logistics, workshops, codesprint and communication).
