Skills and Talents
 

Okay, I'm creating this thread to act as a repository of information about everyone who's interested in participating in the freelanceFIRST effort.

A lot of people have pledged their help, so it's important that we all have an easily accessible place to keep up to date on who's involved and what they can contribute.

So, if you'd please, I'd like everyone who's interested in helping to reply, post some method of contacting you, as well as what skills you have to contribute.

I'm in immediate need of finding skilled, web-savvy programmers. While I don't anticipate the need to be doing any coding for a little bit longer, it's important that they be involved in these early stages. If they can't create the website as we're envisioning it, then we'll need to step back and reexamine ways of accomplishing our goals.

So, without further adieu...
