| My name is Max Mehl, 24 years old and currently living in Konstanz, Germany, next to the Swiss border. I'm in my last semester of Politics and Administration but until the degree I make my living as an IT freelancer. In 2011 I started to get active in FSFE in the translators' team and became a proud Fellow in April 2012. End of 2013 my 6-month internship at FSFE's Berlin office started where I learned a lot about the organisation and the importance of Free Software in general. Right now, I'm an active member of FSFE's translators, web and German team and trying to help FSFE in any way I can -- for example with the compulsory routers topic [1] where we achieved great successes. |
