“ThoughtMill Corporation, a market leader in delivering
strategic technology solutions to emerging companies engaging in
e-business, today announced a one year agreement as a strategic
development partner to Netsurfer, Inc., an Atlanta-based provider
of technology and services to Internet access providers.
ThoughtMill has begun lifecycle development services by teaming
with the company to co-develop portions of the NetKit suite of
software and services for Internet access providers and their
subscribers.”

ThoughtMill is using Linux technology to build the new
product, an add-on enhancement to NetKit 5.0 that allows access
providers to offer subscribers features specifically tailored to
individual household members.
NetKit Family Edition includes
parental account controls, dynamic Web content filtering settings
for each family member, and usage quota and reporting capabilities
controlled via the parental account.”

“Netsurfer is interested in developing products in a rigorous
software lifecycle-development environment. We selected ThoughtMill
as our development partner because of their reputation for
excellence and proven methodology in the software engineering
domain,” said Jeff Russell, Netsurfer president and CEO.”
