5 Or consider paying a Gentoo developer [*] as your first level support
6 person, and liaison with Gentoo. Thus they consult for you, and tell you
7 if your specific combinations are going to work, and do their hardest to
8 keep them working.

11 do.

13 I believe there are several developers that are unemployed, and would
14 like more work of this nature.

16 * I'm aware that myself and several other developers do this in various
17 ways, most commonly by having our regular employer task us with making
18 sure that changes in Gentoo won't break what we do. However I'm not
19 taking any new consulting clients presently.
