Alas, I am no more (at least I am no longer a Warwick employee ;))

So after working for ELAB for the past year, the time has now come to part ways.

I shall be joining Interface21 who produce the excellent Spring Framework, and where I spend most of my time.

It has been fun and enjoyable, and I have learnt a lot, and hopefully passed on a bit too. In particular I produced webgroups, formsbuilder (taken over by Hongfeng, the Oracle guru) and sitebuilder2, although all the funky cool GUI stuff was done by others; I am strictly a server side guy…..javascript (shudders) urgh :)

My next role will be as a consultant providing training/architecture+code reviews etc for the Spring framework, Spring Web Flow and possibly hibernate. I have done mentoring + training courses before, but the main focus of my previous jobs has always been to produce architectures/code, it will be interesting to see whether I “take” to the new balance (mainly mentoring, reviewing, little code).

We shall see ;)

Anyways, it has been fun, and working for a Uni is most definately a different experience from working in the “real world” ;) and I have thoroughly enjoyed it, and dare I say may return one day :)

And yes Chris, SBR2 is August 2006, and even 2007 compliant ;) As for webgroups and formsbuilder…. ;)
