,----[ Quote ]
| Klaus Knopper teaches at the Kaiserslautern
| University of Applied Sciences where he
| lectures in software engineering and software
| technology and occasionally gives seminars and
| talks about open source in various parts of
| the IT industry. Klaus received his diploma in
| electrical engineering from the Kaiserslautern
| University of Technology, which in German is
| die Technische UniversitÃt Kaiserslautern. He
| co-founded LinuxTag in 1996, a Linux
| exhibition which has not really seen any
| competition from anywhere. He has been a self-
| employed information technology consultant
| since 1998. As well as all of this he started
| the Knoppix GNU/Linux distribution. Knoppix is
| something of a legend as far as system
| administrators and computer repair technicians
| are concerned. Most people who know about it
| have a healthy respect for it. Linux User &
| Developer was able to catch up with Klaus in
| the middle of his busy schedule and ask him
| some questions about himselfâ.
