20 To be honest, I haven't fully formulated the details yet. I've done
21 all of the technical stuff for this company for many years, but at
22 this point my time would be better focused elsewhere in the company.
23 We're an online retailer of home decor items. I'm looking for help
24 with technical duties which could include system administration and
25 Perl programming. I'm hooked on the technical stuff but I really need
26 to get off it and focus my efforts elsewhere.

28 It actually sounds like someone is creating the ebuild for free
29 despite my offer to pay so you're right on about that. :)
