IKS is a small regional ISP. We are very conservative in domain name issues. I'm a co-founder of IKS. My IT-stocks are limited and organized in a fond, not in individual companies. I'm working in the field of internet security (i.e. OpenPGP) and as an system/network-admin. I'm involved into the German speaking Usenet community since several years. Furthermore I've good, direct connections to most regional and nationwide telcos and supporting companies, I do not work for.
BACKGROUND
Background information, personal statement, URL, or other information you would like posted in connection with your name on the ICANN website.
The reason to canidate is simple: ICANN is a technical organisation for technical problems, so it requires persons which can pre-estimate the technical and political consequences of any change. IMHO I'm able to do so. OTOH I'm sufficiently involved in political developments (esp. digital signature, wiretrapping, general privacy, education, liberation, ...) to transport ideas and reasonings between politics, technicans, journalists and - last but not least - the ordinary people.

If you have further questions about my Internet related activities, please consult a search engine or drop me an email.
