Just some words about me and my interests:

• Born 1954 in a small village in the south of Germany (not bavaria).
• Since 1965 i'm got more and more a fan of all kind of SF.
• In the 80's my interests changed because i concentrated me on my family and my job (IT)
• Since 2000 i rediscoverd SF first by some bestseller like Asimov, Dick ...
• 2004 i joined perrypedia which has started a month before and i'm still active there.
• since my retirement i spend more and more time to complete my collections of german SF

My interrests in ISFDB was:

• to integrate the first Ren Dhark series (which was my favourite in the 60's)
• identify the missing week in the Perry Rhodan series. I've got some very intersting references from here, but i also detect that there are still gaps in ISFDB.

I don’t want to continue working here for the time being because I’m pretty frustrated right now. There are obviously some undocumented rules that you rely on. For example, publisher overview lists prefer to accept unstructured lists (HJB-Verlag 71 items or Heyne-Verlag 1347 items) instead of grouping them. In my opinion the are garbadge cans.
