Commercial Support?

[Hasan Amjad]

Is there any commercial support available for programming in Scala?

PS. Apologies if this is the wrong forum for this question. If so, a
pointer to the appropriate one will be appreciated.

What do you mean by "commercial support"? Tools? Training? Consulting? All these things exists, but you'd have to be more specific.

Something I learned in academia: there are three kinds of academic reviews: review by name, review by reference and review by value.

Miles Sabin does Scala support and training.  He has a lot of experience and a lot of exposure to Scala, both the internals and externals.

Jonas Boner also does Scala training and coding.  He runs that Akka project and I have a lot of respect for his coding and his interpersonal skills.

Heiko Seeberger has started a Scala training exchange.

I have a list of other folks who do Scala and Lift coding and training and you're welcome to contact me off-list with your specific needs and I'll be happy to make an introduction.

More broadly, please expect a company that provides Lift and Scala training and support to be announced in Q1.

Thanks,

David

I would be interested to know more about all the aspects you mention
(and any others). However, my priorities are: help with resolving tool
chain issues, and help with Scala programming. Consultancy in the sense
of domain-specific software development might come in later.

Many thanks for replying.

David, thank you for all the pointers. I shall certainly take you up on
your offer once I have something useful to say.

Dropping in a bit late. 

But as David I currently do full time Scala consulting and training (through my company http://scalablesolutions.se). Let me know if you are interested it discussing details.

I have a fair idea of Scala commercial support now. Many thanks for all
the responses.

I shall be getting in touch with interested individuals off-list, as and
when the need arises.
