Hello friends, As you all know (from my email address at least), I have been working for Hewlett Packard. Today however is my last day with HP. (Future mail should be sent here): mj...@al... For a long time I have been looking for the elusive goal - how to have a career helping Open Source software. It is therefore with a great deal of pleasure and pride that I make this announcement. Some of you might recall that in mid-April there was mail sent to this list from Craig Snapp, CEO of Pocket Penguins Inc. I have had some wonderful conversations with Craig since then. Craig and the Pocket Penguin team really have a vision for Linux, the SuperH chip, and how PPI can be a part of the Open Source revolution. I think his desire to have a company rooted in Linux, and my desire to cut code and help our project are very well matched. So after talking with him, the decision to join Pocket Penguins was a natural one for me. And I'm soooo pumped! :-) Regarding our project, I will endeavour to help people as independently as I always have, but now I will have considerably more time to do it. PPI believes working with our project should be a two-way street where all benefit, and I am convinced that the approach Pocket Penguins has to Linux, Open Source and us is consistent in every way with the ideals we hold so dear. So, I really wanted to share this with all of you. In short, I'm a Pocket Penguin and I'm thrilled. It's a whole new opportunity for me, and I hope for the project as well.
