I am very interested in seeing Stratego put to industrial use and would be happy to assist you in this process. As you are aware the software is open source and thus free for you to use. Deeper involvement on my part could be in the form of training in the use of the tool suite, advice or actual implementation of applications specific for your project, improvements of our tool suite to better support your applications. The extent to which I'll be able to do this depends on the interestingness of the activity (I'm a researcher after all) and the benefits for my research group. For example, I could use financial support to hire students or students who have just graduated to work on (your) applications or improvements of Stratego/XT. My aim is for all such activities to result in improved insights in program transformation and new open source spin offs that benefit the Stratego community. If you have more concrete ideas about what to use Stratego/XT for, I'll be happy to advise you and further explore possibilities for collaboration. -- Main.EelcoVisser - 20 Dec 2001
