Abstract
We present a sequence of codes attaining the Tsfasman-Vladut-Zink boun d. The construction is based on the tower of Artin-Schreier extensions recently described by Garcia and Stichtenoth. We also determine the d ual codes, The first steps of the constructions are explicitely given as generator matrices.
