About me and this blog

About me

My name (obviously) is Remko Weijnen, I work for as a senior consultant for a company called PepperByte. However this blog is not related to my company but just to me personally. In this blog I will talk about Server Based Computing (Microsoft Terminal Server and Citrix), Delphi programming and other things that I’m interested in.

Currently I participate in 2 open source projects, the Jedi Apilib project and the Jedi Security library.
