Erwin Lansing

Erwin Lansing is a network systems engineer at TDC A/S, the largest danish internet service provider, living near Århus, Denmark. He's been using several Unix and Unix-like computer systems for fun and profit since the 90s.

Erwin started using Unix-like systems while at Utrecht University, the Netherlands, modelling biological systems while studying bioinformatics. In 2000, he moved on to web-based application development for a startup company, slowly moving more into system maintainance of FreeBSD-based servers. After changing jobs to the danish incumbent telco, his focus changed more onto networking while still maintaining several critical Unix-based servers.

He became a FreeBSD contributor in 2002 and joined the Ports Management Team (portmgr) in 2005. Additionally, he is also the team's secretary.
