I’ve had a few comments over the past few weeks about my whereabouts and the future of Gaisan Technologies. Well, I’ve been working the past few months as a contractor within a WIT campus company focusing on next generation telecoms services (what else ? :)).
I’m happy to say that I’m now working with TSSG most days. Gaisan is still running, still open for business and still doing consulting on telecoms and contract software development. However, there will be many changes over the next few months and I’ll keep you abreast of these on my blog. I guess an interesting opportunity came about and I felt compelled to take it.

I submitted the first changes last night. Would have hacked out the little errors sooner but I had huge problems with upgrading movable type. Everything from files not transferred properly (or at all) by the FTP client to problems to the usual “ObjectDriver, DBI::mysql” issues. To anyone facing similar issues I’ll give the following heads up.

1. backup your previous install including all files and database
2. reinstall all the files again, configure mt-config.cgi to point at your databaseand hope it all works

I’ve been playing around with fractal generation over the past few weeks . Some of the results have made it into the redesign of Ordo Ab Chao. Feedback is appreciated but I’m unlikely to change much over the next few weeks. Also, many thanks to those surfers with time on their hands who mailed me their opinions on my new look. The dreads are also here to stay 😉
