It appears my first article has just been published on Planet Open Source Hong Kong and I didn't even introduce myself. How rude of me!
So for those who don't know me yet, I'm Mathieu [pronounced somethinglike "馬吊"], better known in geek circles as "bochecha". I'm French, originally from that …

A few days ago, I received a confirmation from the Hong Kong Department of Immigration: my request for a working visa has been accepted. \o/
This means that starting January 17th 2011, I will be working and living in Hong Kong.

I should probably have blogged this earlier, but:
