About Me

  • Name: Axel Reimer
  • Mail address: axel [at] eversten [dot] net
  • JID: [1]

I am an information scientist who is interested in open source projects, especially tools which enhance the digital sovereignty. Currently, I am working as a project manager and requirements engineer at BTC AG in Oldenburg (Germany).

My XMPP-projects and activities

I started using Jabber/XMPP in winter 2000 (when I started to study information science). In 2021 I got more active in the XMPP community. I deployed my blog eversten.net which is available in German and English to help non-technical people to get started with XMPP. I test a lot of XMPP apps and I report bugs and inconsistencies to the developers.

I operated a private ejabberd server in the years 2021-2022. In the year 2022, I decided to switch from ejabberd to Snikket as XMPP server software.

Motivation

I think that it is important to support the development of tools and communities which use open standards to help people to enhance their digital sovereignty. XMPP offers nearly everything a normal user needs to replace centralized instant messaging services.
