Ok, maybe that was a bit brief - got my fingers crossed and hit "send" prematurely. I'll try typing without mittens on this time.
Hi All, I'm Hue Holleran of Open Action Ltd. - currently filling the role of sys arch and development team leader working with several organisations in the UK. I'm priveleged in that I'm able to work around 3 weeks+ a month from home. A lot of my work these days is thinking and writing reports and planning but still have plenty of time to "code". I have around 14 years commercial development and systems experience mainly with Microsoft products although the first commercial work I undertook was while in secondary school so I guess it could be as much as 17 years if one counts BBC Micro and PC-based FoxBase/Pro software. I have around 5 years web development experience and spent the last 2 years getting to grips with java as well - although my first interest and exposure to java goes back to its inception when I thought it looked neat. My main drive at the moment is moving everything we do to Debian GNU Linux - so all java and web development is done on Debian and very nice it is too. I still actively develop in Microsoft VB/C#.NET although struts would be my chosen framework for web development. Currently working with a team on 2 large commercial web developments using struts amongst other Microsoft-based projects too. My expectations in undertaking this workshop are that it will teach me everything I do not know; will make me a happier and more fun person to be around; will improve my ability to consume large amounts of alcohol without falling over; will improve my "bar billiards" playing; and will give me insight into the bits of struts I have not yet touched and teach me to use properly the bits I already think I know how to use. Hobbies? Ok. I'm very interested in the previous lessons of conflicts of war and am currently reading "Nemesis" (the fall of Adolf Hitler). Previous books include Sun Tzu's Art of War, Stranger in a Strange Land, Bel-Ami by Guy de Maupassant, anything by F.Forsythe and indeed anything that I think's worth reading. I always read literature in bed and technical books and articles in the bath. (ok maybe a bit too much detail but I'll leave it in). I also enjoy spending time with my georgeous 3 year old daughter and playing golf at my local army course and I'd be lying if I said I do not spend any time at all in the pub. >> g. Do this 1st. << Ok, done - where's everybody else's? Looking forward to working with everybody else on the workshop - although I hope the rest appears less cryptic than Vik's first mail but I'm going to give it a try tomorrow - I'm sure it'll make sense in the end. No spoonfeeding, eh?
