I've just had a contract come across my desk for a project moving
enterprise business software to web based thin client apps using
google technology (running on Linux of course). Looks interesting
and I'm seriously tempted to take a break from the kernel stuff
and give it a go. It would mean heading over to the west coast for
a couple months before heading back home to the midwest... such
is the life of a consultant.
