Hey everyone,

it's been a while since I posted anything meaningful here, I now tend to spam my own blog instead . I regularly get emails and messages asking "what's up?" and as I realise many of you aren't on my Facebook and never visit patchou.com, here's the answer: everything's fine .

I'm now spending more time taking care of my personal life and my gf, I have lots of projects for the future (software and not) and, for those who don't know yet, I'm expecting a child for the beginning of 2011 . Yup, I'm going to be a dad, Stephanie is going to be a mother, and we're still wondering how to get the ultimate weapon of some of our Final Fantasy characters. I don't know yet if it's a boy or a girl but I hope he/she will have the answer by the age of 8.

All that to say that life goes on, even when we post less on the forum. As for Messenger Plus!, I'm spending a lot of time working at the office in Montreal. We're now finishing some secondary projects and we're working on a brand new site for the next major release of Messenger Plus!. I'm very happy with the team we have, I'm confident they'll be able to maintaing and improve Messenger Plus! in the many years to come.

Have a good week and take care. We should organise another Plus! meeting some day in Europe. I'll be in Paris in the beginning of September if anybody's interested .

Patchou

Congratulations to you and Stephanie!

Glad to hear everything is going well.

Congrats and enjoy it

I remember one year for april fools, patchou posted he was having a kid. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE NOW!

The boy who cried wolf.

why not... (for Joa, not Chromo ).

But Chrono is such a nice name

Sam if it's a girl or boy.

Always the most righteous character in movies. While not always the main character, it's someone you can count on.

Samwise, Lord of the Rings
Sam Whitwickey, Transformers

List goes on and on, you know it to be true.

Awesome news! Congrats! It's nice to see you getting nice and settled!

Way to go. It is about time you released this info! Hope all is well keep us in the loop indefinitely!

Congratulations on your child.

I hear they're better than any toy you can buy.

Except Buzz Lightyear toys.

Congrats Patchou

Congratulations

OMG.... I can't believe I've missed this great news.
Congratulations! And dare I say it... finally

Congrats Patchou!

Wow. Big news indeed. Congrats patch!
