About Joe

Joachim Werner (joe@suse.de)

I am working at the Nürnberg location of Novell as the product manager for Enterprise Linux responsible for Europe, Africa, and the Middle East (EMEA).

Prior to that I was a project manager in the SUSE R&D team, responsible for improving the "migration experience" from other operating systems to SUSE Linux, contract work SUSE is doing for partners and customers, and the Software Development Kits (SDKs).

I studied Business Administration at the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt. That's when the above picture was taken.

At work in the SUSE office I look like that:

My first encounter with Linux was when I did an extranet project for Bertelsmann. Later I founded my own IT company that developed content management solutions based on Python, Zope, and Linux. I joined SUSE/Novell in January 2004.

Python (especially the PyQt and PyKDE bindings) and Zope still are my favourite open source tools.
