I have created or corrected translations in software such as Tasks, Contacts, Dates, GNOME-Schedule, Transmission, Specto, etc. Some of my past translations were done in Launchpad. Nowadays, I usually translate software from the source code repository itself, and email the changes directly to the developers.
The very website you are looking at is an example of that: since your web browser is configured with English as its primary language, the English version of the contents are currently displayed. If your browser was set to any other language, the French version would be displayed.
My continued involvement in Free and Open Source software has made me file hundreds of bug reports and thousands of comments on various pieces of software that I have used and loved. Over time, I have involved myself in bug triaging for my own projects (Specto, Kirika, etc.) as well as others' (PiTiVi, Avant Window Navigator) to ease the developers' task. My bug reports are scattered over the web, but are for the most part contained in:
For some of my favorite projects, I have designed new logos and icons (when they were missing, confusing or lacking in elegance), sometimes accompanied with a new website to improve the project's image and presence on the web.
I also designed logos for organizations or enterprises such as Ecchi.ca or Tabib Consultant Inc.
As a long time artist, graphic designer and usability fanatic, I have been immersed in Human Interface Guidelines and analysis of efficient human-computer interaction and ergonomics.
I have made various comments or usability reviews on software user interfaces (such as PiTiVi, Specto, GRsync, Homebank, Tracker Search Tool, GNOME Schedule, DVD95, Labyrinth, etc.), filed hundreds of bug reports (see above), blogged on the matter, and participated in exhaustively designing user interfaces for software such as Specto and PiTiVi.
