In Seattle

I reached Seattle yesterday and was pleased to note that the wheather this time is a lot more pleasant. Its sunny and a bit cold - just the midway between sweltering heat of hyderabad during this time of year and the chilly and damp seattle in november when I last visited here.

As for the work here, Avi told me that the reason for this visit is mainly to assist the DepotPoint development team in customization of REO platform and since the existing platform is completely developed by the offshore team at Pramati I have to assist the DepotPoint development team in understanding the platform and getting started. Apart from that, I will also be discussing platform level designs with Avi about how to make the platform more generic and extensible.

So, for most of the time I will either be involved in knowledge transfer or in design discussions. Not only a change of location and weather but change of work as well. I am not complaining.

I will be here for about 3 weeks this time as opposed to 2 weeks last time. So, i am planning to explore the city a little more and if work load permits will probably head to San Fracisco on 22nd to be with Pussad and Cheta for an extended weekend (Monday, 25th is a holiday here) and play some cricket.

Can't really ask for more.
