OSS is the best software. Billions of people around the globe work together to create ecosystems in their preferred language to solve problems. I am part of this globe spanning community through my contributions and my daily work. I am mainly a software developer for an web agency, but i am also an entrepreneur and idealist, which wants to make the world a better place.
I create and maintain mainly library code which is used by others. I contribute to TYPO3, Flow Framework, Symfony and other packages in the PHP world.
On top of that i am the creator and maintainer of a handful Open Source extensions/plugins for the mentioned OS projects i am contributing. I update these extensions/plugins as new releases of the underlying framework/software is released so everyone can always use my work. For free.
