Welcome

MeThis is attempt number fourteen thousand two hundred seventy and five in creating a home page for me. Welcome. You can find a brief CV and information about the three four dominating professional things in my life (OpenNMS, Request TrackerProject & People Management) here. Above those things is “IT”, information technology – that’s what I am doing: I make IT work :)

I have started businesses with Open Source Software and used Linux since 0.99pl12 (Slackware first, then Debian, for the Desktop I prefer Ubuntu but I do have a Mac as well). I think that the real strength of Open Source is the level of documentation(!), the reliability and well..the openness. If you ever tried to integrate towards a closed system and guess-reverse-engineered an Access “Database” you know what I mean. Especially OpenNMS has an amazing quality and quality assurance in place, unmatched by many “commercial” products.

You can not contact me unless you send an email to my private email address, which is af (at) genevainformation (dot) ch. I’m blogging pictures over there.
