== History ==
[[Image:Gnauck.png|Alexander Gnauck|left]]
I am a software developer mainly working with Microsoft .NET technologies. I met the Jabber protocol in the year 2001, and the technology convinced me from the 1st day.

Since 2001 I'm programming, contributing and promoting Jabber/XMPP. Since 2003 I'm a member of the XSF. I served the XSF board in the years 2006, 2007 and 2008 and took over the secretary duties in 2006.

== Active Jabber/XMPP Projects ==
* [http://www.ag-software.de/matrix.html MatriX] is a set of commercial XMPP libraries for the Microsoft .NET Framework written in managed c# oode. They are available for Silverlight, Mobile, Desktop, Android and iOS.
* The [http://www.ag-software.de/agsxmpp-sdk.html agsXMPP SDK] is cross platform open source (GPL or commercial) XMPP SDK written in c# for .NET, Mobile and Mono.

== XSF working groups ==
* I'm a member of the admin team
* I am the secretary of the XSF

== Evangelism ==
* I try to help newbies and other developers whenever possible.
* I try to convince individuals and cooperates from the XMPP technologies for IM or real-time collaboration business applications.
* My name is on no XEP yet, but I try to prove the XEPs and protocols with source code. I contribute to the protocols while implementing them, and discussions on the mailing lists or directly with the authors.

== Why I'm reapplying ==
* I want to contribute with my activities and long time XMPP experience to the XSF.
