Journeyman Craftsman Visit
liam
I am a journeyman software craftsman, currenlty living and working in
Brisbane Australia. In April I am going to travel to the US to attend
Alt.Net Seattle and Seattle codecamp.
In between the two conferences I have five days in which I would like
to undertake a craftsmanship mini-apprenticeship, pairing and skill
sharing with your company. I do not require any compensation other
than the opportunity to assist you and learn from you. Although my
conferences are in Seattle I am happy to travel anywhere in the USA
and Canada (excluding Hawaii :) ).
Things I am good at: .NET web development, javascript, creating
software that solves problems
Things I am learning: Ruby, Rails, javascript
If you are interested in having me as visiting craftsman from the 12th
to the 16th of April please reply on this mailing list or contact me
directly.

interested in hosting me for a day or two. Is there anyone else in
that area who would like some of my time?
This group talks a lot about apprenticeship / mentoring, continuous
learning, and building a network of skilled and professional
programmers. With your help I am trying to put those things into
practice.
Liam McLennan.
PS. Here is my blog: http://hackingon.net
and some cool things that I have built in my spare time
* thefastway.net this is a route planner application featuring a
heuristic for approximately solving the travelling salesman problem
* onashirt.net an experiment in creating a single page web
application
* herald-property.com an email marketing application that was
supposed to make me rich but didn't

I'd have to check with the company though.
The company is drillinginfo.com where you can read about what we do.
My blog at http://stevedonie.lostechies.com has some more info about
how we work.

Austin would be great. The tech community there seems to be a phenomenon. I will take a look at those sites. Are you coming to Seattle Alt.NET 2010?
Cheers,
Liam McLennan.

If you can make it to Chicago that week and would like to pair with us
in the Obtiva Studio on some Rails projects, let me know.
Best,
Dave Hoover

offered to take me in. Here is the current plan:
Mon 12th Didit (Long Island)
Tue 13th
Wed 14th Obtiva (Chicago)
Thu 15th 8th light (Chicago)
Fri 15th 8th light (Chicago)
It is interesting that all three companies I will be spending time
with work primarily with Ruby. I think it is a reflection of the
nature of the craftsmanship community. When my tour is complete I will
update this thread with the result.

Have a great time. All those companies are fun. We'll see you in Chicago.
PS I have my thoughts about your comment that all 3 companies are using Ruby. Generally has to do with he environments that use Java/dotnet vs other languages.
