To all those looking for work at the present time, I interviewed for
this position and would HIGHLY recommend both the organization, the
area, and the people.  I interviewed with the director and 3 others
and the 'feel' wasn't stuffy in the least bit -- it was very relaxed
and I felt like I was talking to people I'd known for a long time.
I've already told them not to be surprised if they hear from me at
some point either reapplying for a position or visiting on vacation.

For anyone looking at the position and thinking the salary is low as
posted, please take a look at the cost of living in the greater Des
Moines area either using something like CNN money or just the housing
listings on desmoines.craigslist.org -- it's a very nice area with low
traffic, a highly rated primary school system AND IT'S CHEAP.  What
exactly do I mean?  Decent 3BR homes for $800.  The most expensive
property I could find was a 5 bedroom furnished executive home on 6.5
acres for $2600 -- I'd say compare that in California but I don't know
anywhere you can get 6.5 acres.

Ultimately, I chose to stay in my current location after being offered
a position and salary bump but this is a great opportunity for the
right person -- I just wasn't the right person at this time.

Thanks,

Dennis

Dennis,

I went to see where you could get a 5 bedroom house for 6.5 acres for  
$2,600. The first page I pulled up ranged from $500,000 - $900,000 :)  
also the salary was not listed that I could see.

Neal,

I think the only place you'll find a house for sale for $2600 is
outside the US -- someplace like Pakastan or India. This was a rental.
 Looking at recent listing, found a 4BR/3.5BA/3CG for $1650 as about
the most expensive at
<http://desmoines.craigslist.org/apa/1245959778.html>.  For those that
don't feel like looking, Urbandale is about 5 miles from where you'd
be working.

FWIW: When I lived in Mountain View, CA (south tip of SF Bay Area)
about 7 years ago, I was paying $1400/month for a 2BR/1BA DUMP in a
7-plex -- and I mean that in the most flattering way.  While I haven't
looked recently, I doubt housing rentals have dropped.

You got to be kidding! Right? I dont think you can buy even a slum
dwelling for that kind of money! AFAIK average price of a slum (10' x
10') in Mumbai will cost you approx $20,000 - $50,000 USD!

And on the other end of the spectrum is the $1 Billion dollar house.

So I am not sure which world you are living in?

Sujit
Far from Mumbai, my mum lives in a small town near
http://chandigarh.gov.in/(punjab, north india) and our small house
price jumped 500% higher than a
few years back. I think it is partly because of a new Airport being built
nearby for 2012.

House prices in India are not that cheap -
http://www.hamptons.co.uk/propdetails.aspx?propertyref=INGUDD00001&id=192128&proptype=&Country=india&ptype=Development&RecNos=10

Also talking about 4D developer jobs. It is tough out there. Specially
nothing much in UK. I got one day a week small contract job at the moment.
Thanks to Edouard@... but it isn't going to pay all my bills. My other
colleague who was made redundant luckily got a good job. But I think that
was the only job available.

BTW I am looking for contract work now as I am wrapping up things with
Jobshout as Workstation has seized trading. Making sure our client sites are
up and running with min. support. I am in a difficult situation but
hopefully something good will come out of it. Difficulty is I wrote CMS in
4D couple of years ago. We didn't envisage the market and now even 4D's site
is going to be powered by Drupal. Our solutions was good but rejected
because of Drupal's licensing and open source flexibility. I don't think it
was purely because of money as we offer CMS SAAS at almost the starting
price which people pay just for hosting a site. Thank God I starting working
on PHP/SQL Lamp stack too couple of years ago and get back into that market
quickly.
Anyway if I don't get a 4D job sooner I will have to train myself in Drupal
or SharePoint etc. to make sure I get something at least which pays the
bills.

There is a list of some of the major projects I have developed mostly in 4D
at http://bwalia.tenthmatrix.co.uk/

I can send my resume if anyone is interested to hire me.

Luckily we have a vertical market application that keeps me and some
Odesk web designers going! We try to do most of our work in WordPress
and is suffice for the websites our customers need.

As 4D developers you do not get the safety and protection of an
enterprise level budget where you can charge $1000 for each line of
code. And you also cannot be part of a large development team as 4D is
not scaled or suited for that either from the development or
deployment point of view. 4D can be very addictive and you run the
risk of narrowing your employment choices.

Perhaps this is the best time to start something new or learn and work
with more languages (perhaps C++ and other low level languages). When
you get something better you can move on and put your project on the
back burner. Develop a new product - open source it - or give it for
free. I am sure you are doing all of this so anyway this is my $0.02
cents worth.

Tell me who's paying that and what for and I'll re-train! I can easily write
20 lines of code where two would do the job :0

Well this is a true story. It is a large consulting company. I know a
few project managers there. After the software project is complete
they will estimate the cost on the number of lines of code and actual
development time taken. Interstingly they say it provides a very good
estimate..

This is, of course, because of the fact that in any well run software development project, actually writing the code is very small fraction of the effort required to complete the project. Writing the code is just the tip of the iceberg in an SDLC. Terse languages would result in a higher cost per line, so you probably couldn't get $1,000/line out of inherently verbose 4D code.

I would like to thank everyone who have asked me to send my resume. I really
do appreciate it.
Another quick note:
- I have started my own company last month - Tenthmatrix Information Systems
Ltd. registered in England and Wales. So I will be able to work across the
globe. Point is I am not just limited to work in EU. I can deliver in US /
Australia too. However I'd prefer to work for myself as a contractor rather
than permanent.
- Doing website for it as we speak in Drupal - http://www.tenthmatrix.co.uk/
- Playing around with Drupal setup - theming, modules, CCK, Taxonomy, SEO,

was purely re-inventing the wheel scenario. Just making my point so that
someone else can learn a lesson - before you write an application in any
system make sure you have studied the target audience and absolutely sure
there is a market for your ideas.

Zahir,
I am in CMS mode for last 4-5 years actually. And in web mode for 10 years.
That's why my company is called Tenthmatrix. No just kidding ...

Drupal is very famous. I was at a Drupal Case studies Seminar recently (
courtesy - Sun Micro systems the other day ) and I found out some amazing
facts about it. Big publishing companies love it. They are using it as it is
very flexible and it has performed really well during high volume of traffic
load. Out of the box features are great too. Many things are so much
amazingly same as we did in Jobshout. Default pages, Themes, template
processing, Cache, re-using code aspect of it...

Also
someone said Microsoft was packaging Drupal in a software bundle
coming out soon
or something like that...so there we go!

I have done a site in Zoomla as well in the past. In fact I evaluated My
Source matrix too couple of years ago. At that time CMS market was not
matured enough so that we could create a VM product like Jobshout
easily. Or at least I didn't realise
even if it was. I have written CMS systems on line or off line ( 4D write
based ) and amazing how world is changing the way we do things. Specially
writing software. Or I should writing less code but it is more about
customizing software and deliver what client wants...

Guys,
If we are told off we can move this discussion to Linkedin - I have already
created a group - "4D Developers". Please join it and carry on there as this
discussion isn't not just about 4D anymore.

Nothing with biz list. Linkedin has lot more features and exposure in  
my opinion.

That advice is a bit too sensible for hardened optimist 4D vertical  
market speculator developer who prefers to subscribe to the "code  
now, find market later" business methodology.

I might just have to hear it a few more hundred times myself.

Well, I subscribe to the 4D Biz list but there's never any traffic on  
it.

Years back it used to be busy - there were interesting discussions  
about every topic going. I don't know why it's so dead now. It would  
be good if it was brought to life again.

    Balinder:

        That¹s a problem for those of us in the corporate world. Many of us
cannot use outside webmail/social networking/forum sites due to firewall
restrictions, and in the case of financial institutions there are SEC and/or
other regulations that limit outside access as well.

        So the biz list is preferable for me, and others too I suspect.

        Thanks,
