looking for a freelancer to update a python NNTP script
I'm looking for a mid-level python programmer to help me with a python script that accesses Usenet. I've got a non-working 2.7 script that needs a little more attention than just running 2to3 on it. Estimated level of effort: about 2 hours or less. If interested please send me an email at moc.liamg@71orifaz (spell that backwards - rudimentary anti-spam measure). Tell me your hourly rate or fixed price for the work and explain your qualifications. (Use email, don't post here). Payment would be through Paypal - half up front, half on completion. Selection will be made on the basis of both qualifications and cost - I'm not just looking for the lowest bidder. I'm posting the offer here because to test the script you need to have some understanding of Usenet and working Usenet access, obviously. I'll respond to this post when the job is filled. Thanks. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
new life at comp.misc
If you weren't already aware, a bunch of people who usually read slashdot.org got frustrated and went back to Usenet, partly because of the new slashdot beta interface Dice Media is imposing, partly because we all suddenly remembered how much we love Usenet. We all landed at comp.misc. If you love Usenet and want to contribute to a community of people posting and commenting on tech stories, please come join us. A bit off topic, but I figure there are a fair number of techies here at comp.lang.python. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
