thanks Balwinder for the analogy. You're right. to take it further, i need 'backup vocalists' of HTML+CSS and/or cover-singer artists. is there a specific job-designation that fits the profile? "web-designer" is too catch-all. i also suppose such a person would already be familiar with using FOSS tools for authoring markup, or would be receptive enough to adapt. regards n > -- > Balwinder S "bdheeman" Dheeman > (http://werc.homelinux.net/contact/) > > -- niyam bhushan _______________________________________________ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
