I agree that a paid staff to perform the upgrades in a set period of time is a good idea, but we should also make sure that these people are such that they strongly believe in good work. As such, I think it might be good to ensure that these people have a vested interest in making Hcoop work, rather than outsourcing outside of HCoop. I have seen too many instances of shoddy work done because people did not really care to make things work just right, and were only worried about meeting deadlines. A combination of laziness and tight deadlines is NOT a good thing. -- Aaron Hsu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.aaronhsu.com | XMPP/Gtalk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (703) 597-7656 | "No one could make a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little." - Edmund Burke _______________________________________________ HCoop-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-discuss
