In the spirit of all of this talk about certification, demand for mod_perl programmers, etc., I'd just like to say that I'm looking for programmers. More to the point, I'm looking for kickass folks who just happen to know mod_perl. If you know mod_perl very well, great, but generally speaking, I'm looking for folks who are just kickass hackers, know that they are kickass hackers, and are willing to do anything to drive a problem to extinction. Experience with mod_perl, Linux, Oracle, Solaris, Java, XML/SOAP, MQ Series, transaction brokers, systems administration, NT, DHTML, JavaScript, etc. etc. are all Good Things. But basically, we're looking for folks who are itching to prove themselves and have some sort of history that indicates that they can do it. As a backdrop: we just raised $30 million, and we were the top story in the latest Red Herring VC Dealflow. http://www.redherring.com/vc/2000/1206/vc-ltr-dealflow120600.html As you have probably gathered by now from my posts about the Scaling mod_perl page (http://www.lifespree.com/modperl/- soon to be folded into the Guide), I'm currently starting up a scaling mod_perl project, and I have a lot of money and stock options to burn on good people and interesting toys. If you're interested, send me a private email & a resume and we'll talk. Unfortunately, you sort of have to be in the Boston area (or willing to move) to make this work. cheers, Ed --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
