I've replied privately to Caitlyn about this, but I'd like to take this
chance to encourage anyone who's interested in this kind of work to contact
me. Even if the logistics of us actually hiring you are a problem, I'd love
to discuss the technologies and issues surrounding the kind of work we do (I
have highfalutin' ideas about how to apply context to, uh, text -- there's a
slogan in there somewhere -- but I frequently come up short on details.

I'll be starting work soon on a prototype context application that uses
Apache, mod_perl and HT://Dig, and would love to know what others are doing.

Lastly, it occurs to me that a repository of technical women's CVs hosted,
say, by LinuxChix would be a very valuable asset to my company and a great
many others. Does such a resource exist? If not, would others be interested
in building one?
