[Sheflug] Jobs (Way OT)



Hi all...

I know that there have been a few mail messages about jobs flying around 
recently, so I'm wondering if I can slip a "Hypothetical" ;-) question just 
to see what kind of response I get (Happy to take responses off list if 
that's more appropriate).

A few months ago, I sent a mail asking if anyone on the list had done any 
open source java programming. Well, there was a completely hidden agenda 
there, in that I was hoping to find someone who might be looking for work 
that had done some open source java work. The idea being I'm rather more 
concerned with what people actually do and think than (a) what an agency 
thinks or (b) what their CV says.

Basically, I'm trying to grow a (small) business around some bits of open 
source java and it's at the stage where I need some help with everything from 
the docs to the web pages (Shudder, they are awful at the moment) to actually 
cutting code and talking to people using the stuff (You can grab the latest 
source from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jzjkit/ or read a bit about it a 
www.k-int.com). There's not a whole lot of cash available at the moment 
(roughly 12k, and that's what I'll be paying myself too) but I think that can 
be expected to change. Some of the interesting stuff I'm working on might 
involve the Sheffield "Information Architecture" and providing some extra 
services around a tool called jake ( http://jake.med.yale.edu/docs/about.html 
). So... If you happen to know of any bright individuals looking for work (Or 
think I'm crazy to try and combine OS software and full time work), please 
drop me a line.

Sorry for the noise,
Ian.
