This information is appropriate to some degree.

I do not represent it "officially". - But I can imagine that my software development activities have got some useful "side effects" from which a kind of "image" or "representation" could have evolved already. > A very large portion of the information that you provide is incorrect Would you like to clarify this a bit more? > or unnecessary.
