I started programming computers in 1979. After years of management and administration application programming, I started to work mainly in the telecommunication sector in 1986. While working at Cycos AG (formerly known as PP-COM GmbH) from 1992 to 1999 I was involved in the development of core and GUI components of their telematic server MRS for ISDN. Now I work for a telecommunication company named Infitel International N.V. that produces software for open telecommunication services.
