Ed, That's no secret - http://bama.ua.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0302&L=ibm-main&P=R11996&I=1. That was three years ago.
I run the Advanced Technical Consultants team for HDS in Asia Pacific. We're a small but busy team. I was a contractor for nine years before that, but only worked for four companies in that time. In a lot of cases out in this part of the world contractors are just line staff with a different employment contract. I was a contractor to Hong Kong Telecom for 1.5 years, but I ran the CPE team. In Citibank I headed the Tuning and Storage Admin team for three years on a contract. I really don't see that my insights into in-system replication changed as a result of how I was employed. I was a consultant to HDS for 3 years and I've been full time staff for three years. My knowledge, skill and arrogance didn't change overnight on January 13th 2003.
