Eric Schabell’s Experience

    May 2009 — Present (7 months)

    Middleware Solution Architects are highly respected members of the Red Hat team, with broad experience in the design, development, deployment, and support of enterprise Java applications. JBoss Solution Architects have a deep understanding of J2EE/JEE and supporting technologies with experience applying those technologies to solve real-world problems.

  • Project Lead / Founder

    FOSS project : ABout Time Linux (AbTLinux)

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Computer Software industry)

    January 2005 — Present (4 years 11 months)

    ABout Time Linux is a project that plans to provide a source-based Linux distribution based on a tool set that has been documented from the beginning of the design cycle. This will be the driving goal behind all development here on AbTLinux. Clearly documented design, clear development goals leading to each release and just getting them done!

    Most members of this project have worked on other Linux distribution projects and have grown tired of working on badly documented designs. This leads to badly organized growth paths for these distributions and hard to manage code bases for the tools. The common expression is that it is like "hurding cats." We feel that it should not be like that. With clear goals, clear documentation and clear coding practices everyone from users on down to developers can benifit from our project.

    This project is programmed in Ruby, for more information see http://www.abtlinux.org.
