| 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! | |
| 36 | |
| 37 For a current copy of this directory, or to have yourself listed, ask: | |

| 49 BeOpen provides corporate-quality support, development and user | |
| 50 documentation for GNU Emacs, XEmacs and InfoDock. (InfoDock is a turnkey | |
| 51 information management and software development toolset built atop emacs, | |
| 52 written by one of our associates.) Emacs distributions for a variety of | |
| 53 platforms are also available, as is support for other emacs variants, such as | |
| 54 those often found on PCs. | |
| 55 | |
| 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. | |
| 61 | |
| 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 | |
| 67 help, bug fixes, and announcements of new releases are, of course, included. | |
| 68 | |
| 69 Support rates start at $1,000 USD, for single user support for one year. | |
| 70 Discounts are available for group contracts. We also offer Golden Support | |
| 71 contracts for those who need the absolute best in mission-critical support; | |
| 72 contact us for details. Hourly development rates and fixed bid work are | |
| 73 available. | |

| 551 What I do: | |
| 552 Primarly I work on GNU software for VMS, both VAX and AXP. I | |
| 553 also work on GNU stuff for Unix on occasion. I'm familiar with | |
| 554 SunOS (version 4.x.x), BSD (version 4.2 and up), | |
| 555 Ultrix (version 4.2 and up). | |
| 556 I've been porting GNU Emacs to VMS since spring 1991. This | |
| 557 includes versions 18.57 to 18.59 and version 19.22. | |
| 558 I maintain GNU vmslib. | |
| 559 | |
| 560 Programs supported: | |
| 561 GNU vmslib: extending, installation, upgrading aid, | |
| 562 simple and complex questions, you name it. | |
| 563 GNU Emacs: porting, extending, installation, upgrading aid, | |
| 564 customization, simple or complex questions, | |
| 565 training, you name it. | |
| 566 GNU autoconf: porting, extending, installation, upgrading aid. | |
| 567 GNU zip, diffutils, m4, patch, texinfo: | |
| 568 porting, installation, upgrading aid. | |
| 569 GNU C/C++: installation, upgrading aid. I might start to | |
| 570 hack at it some day. | |
| 571 | |
| 572 The list of programs I currently support represents both my interests and | |
| 573 current priorities. Your interest and funding can influence my priorities. | |
| 574 | |
| 575 Experience: | |
| 576 Fluent in C, C++, Emacs Lisp, Pascal as well as assembler | |
| 577 on VAX, Motorola 680x0, Intel 8086 and 80x86. Modified key | |
| 578 elements in Emacs (e.g., memory and process management) to work | |
| 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, | |
| 583 as well as held classes for IBM PC users. | |
| 584 A reference list is available on request. | |
| 585 | |
| 586 Your Rate: | |

| 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. | |
