Homepage at university

April 13th, 2008

Recently I set up a small homepage on the webspace my university offers me for free. You’ll find information on the committees I’m working in and a list of my publications. This includes a paper on JUnit I wrote together with Lukas Nießen.

I’ll never need to mount DELL’s rescue and restore partitions and therefor don’t want them to be listed there. Here you go: Read the rest of this entry »
