Introduction
I am an experienced freelance developer. With over 14 years of software development and network administration experience, I now specialize in web development for Open Source software. I focus on quality work with re-use, security and maintenance in mind. I have the expertise and connections to get what you need done, done, and done well.
My specialty lies in open source content management systems. specifically in work with CMS Made Simple, an open source content management system used on thousands of production sites. I also have a lot of experience in identifying other systems for special cases and even custom programming to help bridge the gap between a stock system and your exact needs.
I have written from scratch, or maintain in excess of fifty addon modules for CMS Made Simple that are in use and work well on each and every CMS Made Simple install.
I have the experience to get a website from concept to completion, including hosting and support. That means that once the site is done, I stay around to help you afterwards.
To find out more information about me, you can view my profile on the CMS Made Simple development team's about us page, and on the forum. I'm known as 'calguy1000'
