Technical stuff I wrote down for myself...

For your Info ...

This page contains technical background information that I put together for myself. Often I take design decisions or I'm looking up information while I'm sure I did the same thing a short while before. Therefore I structured the information I gathered from several sources on the web and reading books and articles and added my own experience to it.

Also, some people are kind enough to write emails to me asking about the rationale of doing things a certain way, or give advice for my new projects. Well, I hope that these readers are satisfied when reading these pages.
