Welcome!

For those who don't know Geoffroy, he's been with us for some time, helped out with pacman development (in particular, with code in the signed-packages arena), and has been a TU for since May of this year.

Yeah, another recent topic which seems to get some movement again (and partially works).

He plans on primarily helping us out with Bluetooth packages (which we've been slacking on these days), among other things.

Geoffroy, many thanks for taking on this challenge. The main problem with bluetooth these days is that many applications are simply not compatible and integration into the desktop environments is often broken. And to make it worse, in the bluez 3 -> bluez 4 update, the bluez people completely broke their dbus API. So fixing up applications for compatibility, finding patches, making sure upstream will merge them will probably be part of what you'll do and I hope we'll get to a better state soon.
