Speaker Details

Thomas Klein started to use OS/2 back in 1993 rather accidentally when he came across a 2.11 edition at a shop sellout. He gave it a try and became passionate about it ever since back then. He is probably known best as a long-term contributor of the VOICE Newsletter especially for his development article series "DrRexx or how I learned to stop worrying and love REXX." He was Chairman of the Event Team of Warpstock Europe 2006 in Cologne, Germany and became a founding member of the warpevents.eu approach. While in his professional scope, Thomas has retired from developing, he keeps doing it for fun - and for OS/2. At least, as long as it can be done with REXX.
Besides his second life in the OS/2 community he is age 42, married, having two children, and two cats. He was a freelance IT consultant for many years with a focus on software testing, and since December 2006 is now working as a software QA consultant for Sapient Corporation.
