When everyone else on this list starts charging for their advice, I'll start charging for mine. :-)
So what do you think a fair rate for my services would be?
If Sun, EDS, and GM can value their software licenses at an ungodly $313M I think we can value Open Source at at least a few grand right? Apache alone would sell for around $5k if it were a commercial product and there wasn't an equally good free one.
On a serious note though, people with your kind of skills are often paid pretty well.
