About Steffen Müller

Since 2002, I am a user and developer of the TYPO3 content management system. I understand content management as an interdisciplinary task under the terms of a knowledge society. This task combines technical, economical and social aspects as well as profund analysis, planning and implementation.

Therefore I do not focus on plain coding, but on various aspects like usability, accessibility, customizability or empirical analysis, following actual findings in communication science. I am also very interested in the subjects of knowledge communication in open source communities and knowledge management in general.

TYPO3 TRYDIVER cardSince the very beginning I am a strong enthusiast and an active member of the TYPO3 community. I have been a member of the official TYPO3 security team from 2004-2008. Since May, 2009 I am a TYPO3 TRYDIVER ;-).
