[ProgSoc] JobSoc: linux/web development gig

[Justin Warren <justin.warren@nospam.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey folks,

The following work has crossed my path, but it's based in Sydney and I'm
in Melbourne with no plans to be in Sydney until around Christmas. The
client believes face-to-face will be required for the job, which pretty
much rules me out.

The info below is about all I have on the job itself, though when I spoke
to the client they mentioned an NDA would be required, for some reason.

Is there anyone who thinks this is their kind of thing? Reply direct
to me if you're interested and I'll fill you in with whatever I can.
