Session Info

Mission Mountain Software

Kelly Burgess has operated Mission Mountain Software for almost as long as he's had a Macintosh computer. But if David Seaman hadn't first created Omnis, and then created an external interface for it, the story would have been a very different one. As it turned out, Kelly has been able to write many useful externals over the years, allowing other Omnis developers to make their applications do even more. And recently he's been writing less in C and C++ and more in Omnis notation. He's the lead engineer on TheRecipeManager, the first cross-platform Studio app to be sold in Apple Stores.
