I parted company with <I'm not going to name the company> at the
beginning of summer. I'm picking up short term contracts as I try to
re-find that "good" company and development environment.
Any leads in or near San Francisco (where "near" does *not* include the
mid-to-lower peninsula, such as Redwood City, Sunnyvale, and San Jose,
or the far East Bay, where BART-able places in the Oakland and Berkeley
area are within commute range) are appreciated.
