My name is Maxime Henrion, and I'm a software developer working in France, particularly interested in open source software. I'm an active committer for the FreeBSD project, working mainly on the kernel and part of the release engineering team. I've been recently working on a rewrite of the CVSup software in C (originally written in Modula-3) called csup.

Besides my obvious interests in computer science, I'm a big fan of books from authors such as Tolkien, Isaac Asimov or Douglas Adams. I'm also a big fan of movies from Stanley Kubrick, Quentin Tarantino and Terry Gilliam, just to name a few.

Ptychochromis insolitus
Ptychochromis insolitus, also known as the Mangarahara cichlid, is a species of cichlid, a fish in the family Cichlidae. Endemic to certain river systems in northern Madagascar, it can reach a length of 26 centimetres (10 inches) and features long tooth- or comb-like structures known as cteni on many of its scales. This unusual feature contributed to the decision to use the species name insolitus when the fish was first described as a new species in 2006. It is classified as a critically endangered animal, being threatened by habitat loss and competition from introduced species; after the last known female was killed during a breeding attempt, its conservation received significant international attention as London Zoo launched a media campaign to identify any remaining individuals. A remnant population was discovered in 2013, and breeding programs in Madagascar and at Toronto Zoo have resulted in thousands of successful hatchlings. This P. insolitus fish was photographed in Wilhelma, a botanical garden in Stuttgart, Germany.Photograph credit: H. Zell
