Just an off-topic "fun" anecdote:

.. a year before Prof Heipke started to work at IPI, University of
Hannover [1], the doctoral student Phisan Santitamnont and myself
started to port GRASS GIS to Linux in exactly that building :-) I was
student of geography next door back then.
Phisan later became professor at the Chulalongkorn University in
Bangkok where the famous FOSS4G 2004 was hosted and so on.

Cheers,
Markus
