I'm in London for a few days; I have a few meetings set up for while I'm here, but we're always on the lookout for people with new and interesting problems. If anyone reading this is battling to get their IT operations into shape, or perhaps has a major enterprise system critical to their business that is not living up to expectations, then by all means get in touch. We also have long experience with clients who run large Java systems on Linux, and problem solving in those environments continues to be the focus of much of our work.
If you're facing issues in any of these areas and need to do something about them, I'd be more than pleased to meet with you while I'm here. You can leave a message for me on 0207 101 9201 or call my mobile +61 4 1079 6725; my email address is andrew@operationaldynamics.com.
Given the Java on Linux preoccupation, it's no surprise that a few years ago I became the maintainer Java bindings for the GNOME Desktop (a project which allows people to use GTK and the other GNOME libraries from to create powerful Linux applications while leveraging their existing expertise with Java). That's the reason I'm on the road this particular trip; the GNOME Foundation has organized a GTK hackfest in Berlin next week and I was kindly invited.
I'll be in Toronto the week after, so again, if someone would like to meet, please don't hesitate to call; 647 477 5603.
Actually, this whole blog post is a bit of a misnomer. It doesn't matter where you are located, nor where I or any of my staff happen to be any given week. If you have systems that are critical to your business, need to prevent crisis from occurring, trying to manage change better, or looking to review your architecture so you can optimize your use of technology and ensure scalability, then don't hesitate to contact us, anytime.
