I've noticed that you have posted requests for Django developers in
the past. On at least two occasions, someone asked who "we" is, and I
would like to echo that question.

Some of your other posts were much more vague than this one, but you
did specify that location doesn't necessarily matter assuming that the
candidate has fast, reliable Internet. Does that apply in this
situation as well?

I've added you to my buddy list on Google Talk in case you'd like to
discuss such details there.

Hi there --

Please don't post job ads to django-developers. Django-users is the
right place for that. You've been asked twice before to keep job ads
off this group. Don't make this mistake again.
