Do you like linux ? and know a thing or two about it ?
Do you like helping people ? and seeing widespread adoption of linux and
open source ?
Do you like money ? and having enough of it to pay the bills without
becoming a wage-slave ?

Then there may be a future for you in the exciting and exploding field
of Open Source Software support !

Whether you are merely an able linux user who would enjoy helping a
newbie navigate his or her new operating system, or a seasoned sysadmin,
with godlike powers who can mv the moon and the stars, the emerging
hoard of linux (and BSD) users, both private and corporate, will need
your help !

Ugly ? Bad breath ? No legs ? No problem ! You can still use a phone,
right ?
Broke ? Desperate ? Willing to do anything for a buck ? Great ! Get the
big bucks when your pager goes off at 2am, and you have to go driving
all over hells-half-acre, chasing some website emergency for some poor
(as in; unfortunate) fool !

Help us sort out the challenges we will face sorting out all the
different types of user, support personnel, and support infrastructure.
This is a chance to get in on the ground floor, Bub ! Meeting date TBA
(but probably between May 22nd and 28th) and will be held at the (why
isn't it open yet ?) linuxcaffe.

So, show of hands ! Do you have a clear idea how this should work ? Do
you want to be part of it ? Do you think it's the stoopidest thing
you've ever heard of ? Well don't just sit on your hands, reply !
