I just joined up today as I found an interesting hole in I-Hug's traffic accounting that wasn't in my favor and wanted to get some input.
My background is that I am software developer who recently moved from Costa Rica in Central America to NZ. Prior to that I grew up in the states, Oregon to be specific. I have been coding in C++, C#, SQL, PERL, etc... for 12 years or so with much success. I am currently working for Marshal Software on their WebMarshal product as the lead developer.
I hope to add as much input to the group as possible.
Cheers.
