2 GNU Service Directory
|
|
3 ---------------------
|
|
4
|
|
5 This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering
|
|
6 support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee
|
|
7 or in some cases at no charge.
|
|
8
|
|
9 The information comes from the people who asked to be listed;
|
|
10 we do not include any information we know to be false, but we
|
|
11 cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to
|
|
12 you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct.
|
|
13 Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here.
|
|
14 We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of
|
|
15 any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact
|
|
16 service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one.
|
|
17
|
|
18 Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask
|
|
19 that you agree informally to the following terms:
|
|
20
|
|
21 1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution
|
|
22 of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone
|
|
23 in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software.
|
|
24 This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the
|
|
25 use of GNU software.
|
|
26
|
|
27 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service
|
|
28 Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of
|
|
29 non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously
|
|
30 mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not
|
|
31 promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks.
|
|
32
|
|
33 Please include some indication of your rates, because otherwise users
|
|
34 have nothing to go by. Please put each e-mail address inside "<>".
|
|
35 Please put nothing else inside "<>". Thanks!

56 Our unique focus on emacs-related work allows us to attract expert talent in
|
|
57 this area to keep you on the leading edge of productivity, especially if you
|
|
58 do software development work. We do the porting, patching, coding,
|
|
59 integrating, debugging, documenting and testing so that your people spend
|
|
60 much more productive time on their mainline tasks.

|
62 Standard support packages include help on all aspects of the packages
|
|
63 supported, including all tools shipped as a standard part of the original
|
|
64 package distribution. In general, we want to give you an unbelievably strong
|
|
65 level of support, so where we can, we will also answer questions concerning
|
|
66 any add-on Lisp code that is used at your site. Setup and customization
|

551 What I do:
|
|
552 Primarly I work on GNU software for VMS, both VAX and AXP. I

|
557 includes versions 18.57 to 18.59 and version 19.22.
|
|
558 I maintain GNU vmslib.

|
|
573 current priorities. Your interest and funding can influence my priorities.

|
|
579 transparently on VMS. I have very good knowledge in the VMS
|
|
580 operating system, as well as MS-DOS and IBM PC compatibles.
|
|
581 I have worked for four and a half years as a VMS system manager.
|
|
582 I've also provided consulting services on IBM PC compatibles,

|
|
868 Experience:
|
|
869 I have B.A. and M.A. degrees in Computer Science and have completed
|
|
870 all but the dissertation for a Ph.D. in C.S. My research for my
|
|
871 Ph.D. is in the areas of logic, type systems, and programming
|
|
872 language theory. My primary programming languages are Emacs Lisp,
|
|
873 Perl, and Bourne shell, but of course I can program in any language.
|
|
874 I have written numerous Emacs Lisp packages. I started the USENET
|
|
875 "List of Frequently Asked Questions about GNU Emacs with Answers" and
|
|
876 maintained it for more than two years. Most of my work has been
|
|
877 related to the telephone system (modems, voice mail, etc.), but I am
|
|
878 not limited to that. Send e-mail for my complete resume or curriculum
|
|
879 vita.
|
|

|
|
881 Programs supported:
|
|
882 GNU Emacs and Taylor UUCP:
|
|
883 Installation, training, customization, bug fixing, troubleshooting,
|
|
884 extension, development, porting, or answering any kind of question.
|
|
885 Any other GNU program:
|
|
886 The same things, but I don't necessarily have huge amounts of
|
|
887 experience with the particular program.
|
|
888
|
|
889 Working conditions:
|
|
890 I am usually available for part-time work (less than 20 hours per week
|
|
891 including any travel time). I can sometimes make time for full-time
|
|
892 work for a month or two; please inquire. I can either work in or near
|
|
893 Boston or via the Internet or via telephone; travel outside the Boston
|
|
894 metropolitan area can be negotiated. My schedule is very flexible.
|
|
895 Any programs I write will normally have the copying conditions of the
|
|
896 GNU General Public License; this is negotiable.
|
|
897
|
|
898 Rates: $65/hour as an independent contractor.
|
|
899 travel and telephone expenses.
|
|
900 higher rates if extensive travel is required.

|
|
908 I'm a better "planner" than I am a hacker. A really good hacker will be able
|
|
909 to keep many pieces of information in their short-term memory and to memorize
|
|
910 new pieces of information at a fast rate. This is not my strong point.
|
|
911 Rather, I excel in domains that require knowledge of the slightly more
|
|
912 theoretical parts of computer science --for example, logic, formal methods of
|
|
913 program development, and functional programming. I can write, and I have
|
|
914 "tutoring" (teaching one-on-one) experience, an, unlike some programmers,
|
|
915 I enjoy doing these things.
|
|
916
|
|
917 I have spend a lot of time looking at the Emacs Lisp sources and customizing
|
|
918 Emacs and VM. I think I can customize Emacs and its packages quickly and
|
|
919 effectively.
