Finding something else to do: Me too

Image by Guerrilla Futures | Jason Tester

As I am finding myself in a similar situation as my fellow Amarok developer Nikolaj Hald Nielsen is currently in, I figured that doing something similar as Nikolaj did could make sense.

To sum it up, I have been working as a software consultant for quite a while. Having my own small company (Kretschmann Software Consulting - KSC), I have mostly worked as an independent contractor doing software engineering. Recently I have worked for Gibson Guitar Corporation, and more recently for Collabora Ltd. In my free time I work on Amarok, a Free Software music player.

I am specialized in C++ development with Qt, and I have been an active member of the KDE community for a long time. Further on, my special areas of interest include Software Quality (finding and fixing complicated bugs), GUI Design and Usability, and Multimedia.

If you are a company that would like to work with me, please contact me at kretschmann@kde.org for getting my full CV.

Thanks

Maybe you guys would be useful to Nokia?

Theoretically this could be interesting indeed, but Nokia usually wants all developers in-house, that is, working in their office. And this implies moving to another country, which is problematic at this point.

I am usually working from my home office, which is well equipped, so I would prefer to work from here.
