MorningA reproduction of my site's temporary downtime message
Temporarily offline...
My former employer, McLeod and Associates , has threatened to sue me for disclosure of confidential information regarding the content of this area of my website. I am currently reviewing the sole docume nt that I have signed, as well as the content of this section, in order to deter mine my legal obligations to comply with his request for its removal. I personal ly do not believe that I have infringed in any way with the document I have signed, nor have my writings been anything but truthful. Nontheless, I take such requests seriously, both because I don't want to get sued and because I honor contracts which I have signed, hence my temporary removal of this section of my site. I do, however, feel very strongly about openness and sharing of information, and it does pain me to remove any data on my site. The relevant information is why I quit my job at the company, and I feel that others should be aware of it, so that if they were to consider employment there, they would know beforehand what issues they will deal with.Mitch, I know you're reading this. I have no hard feelings towards you personally. I had hoped to offer some of my spare time to you in a consulting role, but I get the feeling you're angry at me. I understand that I left at a difficult time in a difficult way, but I felt the situation warranted it. Incidentally, I do want to suggest that you take a look at VA Software's sourceforge product. It offers, in a vendor-supported way, several of the useful services I provided as a Sysadmin, at least those related to supporting development. Goodbye,
