“Previous Employment: Madison Web (defunct) While working at
Madison Web as a “Macintosh Consultant”, Jason put together a web
page on MacOS extensions http://www.madison-web.com/ext/ which
earned an award from LookSmart.”

“Current Employment: LinuxPPC Inc. www.linuxppc.org/com Besides
being the co-founder of the first PowerPC Linux company, Jason
functions as the webmaster (note: the sites were designed by the
talented John L. Grantham) and marketing director. Haas has become
an adept marketing person. The name ‘LinuxPPC’ has become nearly
synonymous with PowerPC Linux and is even used an an
interchangeable term. Slashdot, MacSlash, O’Reilly, and others have
sought interviews with Haas. Though set back by a near life ending
accident, Jason has recovered and is ‘back in the mix’. He even is
helping do tech support and quality assurance for his small company
(4-7 people).”
