the transamerica building in San Francisco

You've reached the home of delraysteve, programmer and musical fanatic. I'm living and working in San Francisco now, and I commute back to D.C. once every three or four weeks. I've taken about a zillion-million pictures of SF since I've been here. Here are a few of them. I put all of my new pictures on Flickr, so you can check those out, as well (if you like). Here's the RSS subscription link for that.

Programming:

I do a bit of web programming, and have a few tools and utilities for the ColdFusion and Fusebox communities (including the ever-popular Bugtracker and Fusedoc Viewer apps). I have eight years' experience in web development with ColdFusion, and have experience with Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL and Access. I also have eight years' of systems administration experience. I've done some CFEclipse and Subversion, as well as Adobe's Spry AJAX framework. Other interests include Model-Glue, Flex 2, revision control and configuration management.

I work for Remedy Interactive in Sausalito, California. RI is a great company. It really rocks, and is full of great people. I'm fortunate to be able to work with them. Sausalito is a wonderful, idyllic and charming fishing-village-turned-rich-person's-hangout just across the Bay from San Francisco (and just beyond the northern end of the Golden Gate Bridge). I take the ferry to work every day, and I cannot for the life of me imagine a nicer commute.

Back to the tech...

BugTracker .6 was released on February 1, 2005. See a rundown of the new features here. Since upgrading to ColdFusion 7, I've also added a nice outstanding bugs report which is output in Flashpaper. That will be part of beta .7. Work on that has been delayed multiple times, mostly due to my move to San Francisco and my new photography hobby (see mention of my Flickr account above). I have plans to completely redo the interface for BugTracker, as well as plans for redoing the underlying code with CFCs. I hope to get moving on that in late Fall of '06, after we complete our move to SF.

I also released a knowledgebase application, using Flash forms and CFCs. You can try it out and download it in my Tools section. It was mostly done as a means to learn Flash Forms. It's far from perfect, but it's useable. How's that for a recommendation?

I moved to San Francisco in the middle of October, 2005. Getting ready for the move, doing the move and getting used to my new environs has taken up most of my time. So, development in general has taken a backseat to all of that. We will be selling the house in D.C. very soon and moving 'us' out to SF. When we are settled, I hope to get back to updating one or two of my applications. Apologies for the long wait. I do have some exciting plans...

Anyway, some of these (somewhat legacy) tools are for Fusebox 3, some for Fusebox 4, and some for whatever box you want to throw them into. You can find all of this stuff in my Tools section.

Music:

I now have a page on MySpace, where I've debued my new tune, 'West Coast Boogie'. I've been working on it while I'm here in SF. Feel free to go there and check it out. I hope to release it on vinyl in the Fall (after our move).

I released a CD in 2004 which is available at CDBaby.com. Downloadable versions of it's tunes are available on iTunes, MusicMatch, Napster and several others places. I also dj (most recently, sharing a gig with Uncle Eric at Café Japoné from May to September of 2004).

We are hosting a podcast for Uncle Eric's 'House of Beats' dj set, which you can subscribe to via RSS. I'll be starting up a podcast of my own once we're more established here in SF, doing mostly modern Bossa Nova. You can check out Tune Engine (my online musical library project), which is also available via RSS subscription.

For a year-and-a-half, I did a webcasting DJ set called 'Bop-O-phonic' on radiodelray.com. It featured bebop from the 40's and hard bop from the 50's and 60's. I've put together a list of some of my favorite albums that I featured on that show, and placed it here on the site.

I was interviewed by Washington's City Paper in 2004. Here's a link to that.

My Music section has more info on all of this, plus several streamable dj sets you can listen to, more information about my cd single, and updates as to what else I'm doing musically, including gigs and what I'm listening to.

If you're looking for the remix I did of the first Macromedia Developer Relations podcast, you can find it here.

Other stuff:

Dexter the dog has a section on this site, as well. We have many pictures of him on display, so check 'em out.

My Blog, which is syndicated over on MXNA, generally sticks to music, programming and politics.

My About section has info on some of the other stuff I'm into, including a list of books that I'm currently reading, a bit more on my technical background, a link to a miscellaneous pictures page, and a description of what hardware and software make this site run.
