Hi all,

Given that I'm shortly about to return to the world of full time work,
I need to find a replacement developer to work with a freelance client
of mine that I'm not going to have time for in the future. The project
is the London Cycling Campaign's website (http://lcc.org.uk/), and
they've already got a few features they'd like developed in the near
future, as well as the possibility of ongoing development, and (if you
like) some support work. They're really great clients, with some
really interesting ideas that make this a more interesting project
than your average 'shop window' for an organisation, and are very open
to incorporating suggestions for features from their developers,
meaning this was a really fun project to work on.

They're also planning to open-source the entire codebase of the site,
meaning that you'll have the assistance of a community of volunteers,
and potentially the chance to contribute some useful code back to the
Rails community.

The site's built on Rails 3, with postgres, solr and memcached. If
you're interested in taking this on, please give me a shout off-list!

Thanks,

Tim
