Starting about 1970 with programming, IT was always a companion of my life. At last this ended up in being engaged since around 15 years in the German-speaking OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice communities, starting with QA on macOS (X11 version) and helping to represent the project at CeBit, later as a member of the Freies Office e.V.
