Michael Grigutsch Application 2013

My name is Michael Grigutsch and I'm reapplying for XSF membership.

Hmm. Sorry, but it looks like nothing special has changed since last years applications. (It's Groundhog Day again, isn't it?)

History
I am 42 years old, living in Cologne, and studied "Rechtspflege" (a special law study here in Germany for becoming a clerk at a court). Since 2001 I'm working as computer/network administrator for the german federal government.

I'm administrating my own Jabber server since October 2003 with half a dozen of domains, most of them for other people.

I'm a member of XSF since 2008.

Jabber/XMPP Projects

 * jabber.i-pobox.net/xmppnet.de, my Jabber server.
 * contributed to the ejabberd Installation and Operation Guide
 * contributed to PyRSS
 * Tester for yaxim (android jabber client)

XSF contribution
I'm member of the infrastructure team, acting as one of the listmasters, postmasters and hostmasters.

XMPP/Jabber - Why I like it
I like to build up and maintain communication infrastructure for other people and for myself. (I'm also radio amateur and a former sysop of a fidonet mailbox.) In my opinion, XMPP/Jabber is the best ground to build up such projects in the internet. The potential of XMPP is very big.

Plans for the future/ Why I'm reapplying
I like to continue my work in the infrastructure team.
