Here goes the first post... My name is Steve Hebert, the Lead Software Architect for Synchrono, Inc.. We provide software that drives plant operations in manufacturing planning and execution. To really simplify it, the software plans the flow of production to produce items on-time.
I've been making software since 1990 and I've worked in full time positions as well as contract positions. I am currently looking into publishing a math library for .net under GPL - called dotMath. I'll be blogging that in the near future.
The main reason I'm blogging is I've always found software architecture is done best when it's a collaborative effort. I've been fortunate in my career to work with some very talented individuals - people that make you look at the problems in software from many different angles and consider every approach.
I hope to get feedback on the things I post and even on programming/architecture topics I don't post. Bottom line - I'm looking forward to all that dialog!
Enough for now...
-Steve
