    Together with another colleague I lead a team of 6 people for setting up a standard .Net development street within our company. The goal is to create a standard that our developers can use at the customers. We define which tools, frameworks, methods … they can use and how everything works together. The whole concept must be transparent, so it’s easy to add/change/delete tools, methods … to something else.
