ABOUT ME

Before sending your request PLEASE read this how-to :
How to write a CouchRequest

I think that a description made by a person using many positive adjectives can't be really objective... Make your own opinion reading the references left by persons I met or hosted :)

Doing that you'll also find there my real name and you could show me, that you've read (a little bit) my profile :)

Nota bene : I'm mostly using a 3G access to go on the internet and most of the time it's showing on my profile a wrong place of connection. For example : Today it showed Split, then Zagreb, then Pula...
