Links

 

I have tried to put together a little list of interesting and/or useful links. You are cordially invited to enlarge my horizon; if you know a website that absolutely has to be mentioned here don't hesitate to write me. I will have a look at the site and eventually put it on my list.

 

Although I visited all the websites mentioned below before publishing the links, it is not possible to view all the contents and links of these sites. In addition, the contents of homepages can change in the course of time. Therefore: I explicitly dissociate from all contents and links on the below mentioned websites.
