Mr. Evans, Hello, my name is Jonathan Simms, and I've been part of the Twisted core team for a little over a year, and have worked for the Divmod Corporation for ten months. While working for Divmod, I wrote a web-based functional testing framework to automate testing of their web application, Quotient. It consisted of an HTTP client, a dom-parsing/inspection API, and a test-descriptiopn API called "Navtags" that allowed a person to specify the steps that the tests were to take traversing the site and the assertions to be made without having to write nasty deferred callback code. I wrote Divmod's release scripts, several repository-management scripts, performance-statistics collection and stress testing code, automated/remote application management code, and documentation pieces for the developers. I am currently refactoring the Twisted test framework, trial, and have succeeded in making it three to four times faster than the current version in Twisted's svn-trunk. It is now also easily extensible, and will be integrated more tightly with Brian Warner's Buildbot program. I have written tutorials on twisted, one of which was a step-by-step tutorial on how to create a web application using the (now deprecated) woven package. Another one, which is still in the works, deals with the new zope.interface component system. I have been working as part of a distributed team for almost a year now. I am a competent programmer, a talented communicator, motivated, and I am available immediately. If it makes a difference, I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from the State University of New York. If you need references, you can speak with Glyph Lefkowitz (glyph@divmod.com) or JP Calderone (exarkun@divmod.com), either of whom can speak for both the quality of my code, and my dedication to my work. I would be very interested in talking with you further about what kind of projects you have. Thank You, Jonathan Simms slyphon@twistedmatrix.com
