My name is Sebastian Mancke, I'm a familiy loving software developer, living in Bonn, Germany. I'm doing occupational software developement since 1998 and have studied computer science at the FW-University in Bonn. After a nice time as frelancer for different companies, 2002 I came up to work only for the Tarent GmbH. This company gave me enough room to create and explore new things, while working on big projects for significant customers. So in 2004 I made the decision to work full time for Tarent, where I'm building the development leadership together with Michael Kleinhenz. My main interrests are: client-server communication, XML Protocols, SOA frameworks, Java, databases, mobile computing. When ever possible, I try to bring my interrest together with an open source bounded business strategy. >> Visit my blog >>
