I just completed one of the best projects to work on to date.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with the SAP team and Daniel was an excellent developer to pair with and challenge me.

Daniel was open to using different tools such as Subversion and Tortiose SVN. After the first few weeks and sneaker net and USB thumb drives, the project productivity took a leap with the use of SVN. You should have seen his face when our conflicts were merged for us!!!

There was a single case when we needed to manually manage a conflict. This saved days if not weeks of time on the project.

I had the data access layer in place in a single day with SubSonic, but use of this tool was outside the corporate policy so it needed to be replaced with some home grown ADO.NET methods. The amount of hand written code must have also taken...

About Me

Thanks for stopping by. My name is Jim Bonnie and I have been writing software for over 20 years. After building financial data systems for Reuters for nearly 18 years I have started doing contract work and am excited about technology and currently focus on Microsoft solutions. DotNetNuke has helped provide a good introduction to ASP.NET web application development, and I am now starting to branch out into other areas. Data Access techniques and SubSonic is something that I am looking into now. This has helped me get an invitation to speak at Las Vegas at DNN Open Force 07. it was a great time. And I am looking forward to OpenForce08, where I wil be presenting on TDD for DNN.

 

Reading the codebetter blogs and attending a nothing but .net training class with JP Boodhoo helped spark my interest in ALT.NET. I attended the first conference in Austin Texas, and it was amazing to see Scott Guthrie introduce the ASP.NET MVC framework.
