Dennis Forbes is a Toronto-based software architect.

He has been published in several industry magazines, has been quoted in the Wall Street Journal and has been interviewed by NPR.Getting back into the flow after the holiday break.
In addition to branded software, yafla also provides consulting and custom software development (in the Greater Toronto Area), which has kept me extremely busy over the past while. That's an area of the business that I haven't really written about (primarily because I keep client project and platform details strictly confidential), however I have a case study where the client is interested in getting their name out there, and the need - and from it the solution - are really interesting and noteworthy, so I might start working it in.
As an aside - both the survey component and yaflaColor are currently broken (as of this writing). Both have been updated to .NET 2.0, and for some reason my third-party host has an issue where helper assemblies are being locked by an outside process, possibly due to synchronization issues with the NAS. This should be resolved shortly. I've let them sit broken for the day simply because they're non-critical and it lets the 3rd party solve the problems on their end.
