I'm now an employee of Layer 7 as a "OS Developer". L7 does interesting things with XML firewalls and gateways, and it is definitely something different and definitely something interesting. The saddest part is leaving the guys at my last job. The best thing about working there (and I'm not alone in saying...http://arcterex.net/blog/archives/2008/06/02/new_phase_in_the_arcterlife_a.html Quotes- June 2, 2008 "Its windows so you have to use the stupid clicky thing." -- Jim regarding software maintenance "You smell like blood, sweat, and mom's tears" -- J of her Dad (kidding of course)http://arcterex.net/blog/archives/2008/06/01/quotes.html |
