I'm quite certain I have a good idea of the magnitude of what you'd charge for professional services for such work, and I would expect it to be 2-3 orders of magnitude larger than what a Worldcon Concom could afford to pay. :-) I would also be very surprised -- having been on NANOG for over a decade now and never having heard your name -- to find out that you were the Exclusive Network Services Provider for NANOG... And I expect they'd be surprised too. Hey! Let's ask them! :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
