So far, I find the work extremely interesting and my co-workers surprisingly bright and talented[1].=20 We're looking for strong intermediate-level Java developers - ideally with some GIS skills[2]. However, as GIS requires a relatively specialized background, the department is willing to consider exceptionally adaptable and smart programmers with little or no GIS experience[3].=20 Ruby is not currently in use and there is no guarantee that this will change; however, I'm one of the development managers for our small department and I've recently begun advocating the use of Ruby[4]. Furthermore, my co-workers are open-minded individuals and would consider any technology that enables rapid and effective results. I realize this message is completely off-topic for this list. I'm begging your pardon and posting anyway because of the uniquely talented group of people which form the Ruby community.=20 If you are interested, please, contact me _directly_ at: mlipper AT doitt DOT nyc DOT gov Thanks, --Matt=20 [1] - I say 'surprisingly' because 'bright' and 'talented' are historically not -- at least in NYC -- synonymous with city government ;-) [2] - see attached [3] - this is a _great_ opportunity for, say, a recent CS grad/graduate student with solid programming skills, but lacking extensive work experience=20 [4] - anyone know of any Ruby GIS apps/API's?
