[ILUG] Fw: FOSS human resources

[Mike O'Donohue]

Thanks for the feedback.  I've advised luker_luker to contact Michael
directly.  I will of course pass on the invite to Michael to join this
mailing list.  I'll also remind Michael about the Limerick Hackerspace
(milklabs) but I believe he may already be involve with that group.
Keep the advice coming.

Thanks again and  kind regards,

Mike

Hi Mike,

    That's a volunteer position or payable work?

	Hi,

	A good point of contact in Limerick might be the Limerick
	Hackerspace -
	http://groups.google.com/group/limerick-hackerspace/about

	Particularly for community work, paid or not, there are
	like-minded people involved there who may be interested in
	contributing their time and expertise to such things.

	Best regards,
	-->Gar
