2 | GNU Service Directory |
---|
3 | --------------------- |
---|
4 | |
---|
5 | This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering |
---|
6 | support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee |
---|
7 | or in some cases at no charge. |
---|
8 | |
---|
9 | The information comes from the people who asked to be listed; |
---|
10 | we do not include any information we know to be false, but we |
---|
11 | cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to |
---|
12 | you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct. |
---|
13 | Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here. |
---|
14 | We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of |
---|
15 | any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact |
---|
16 | service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one. |
---|
17 | |
---|
18 | Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask |
---|
19 | that you agree informally to the following terms: |
---|
20 | |
---|
21 | 1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution |
---|
22 | of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone |
---|
23 | in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software. |
---|
24 | This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the |
---|
25 | use of GNU software. |
---|
26 | |
---|
27 | 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service |
---|
28 | Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of |
---|
29 | non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously |
---|
30 | mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not |
---|
31 | promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks. |
---|
32 | |
---|
33 | Please include some indication of your rates, because otherwise users |
---|
34 | have nothing to go by. Please put each e-mail address inside "<>". |
---|
35 | Please put nothing else inside "<>". Thanks! |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | For a current copy of this directory, or to have yourself listed, ask: |

61 | Standard support packages include help on all aspects of the packages |
---|
62 | supported, including all tools shipped as a standard part of the original |
---|
63 | package distribution. In general, we want to give you an unbelievably strong |
---|
64 | level of support, so where we can, we will also answer questions concerning |
---|
65 | any add-on Lisp code that is used at your site. Setup and customization |
---|
66 | help, bug fixes, and announcements of new releases are, of course, included. |

800 | What I do: |
---|
801 | Primarily I work on GNU software for VMS, both VAX and AXP. I've |
---|
802 | been porting GNU Emacs to VMS since spring 1991. I've ported a |
---|
803 | bunch of other GNU programs as well. I maintain GNU vmslib. |
---|

---|
805 | |
---|
806 | Programs supported: |
---|
807 | To a varying degree (ranging from extension and porting to |
---|
808 | installation and simple questions) at the time of updating this |
---|
809 | entry: |
---|
810 | - GNU vmslib, emacs, autoconf, zip, diffutils, m4, patch, texinfo, |
---|
811 | C/C++; on both VMS and Unix. |
---|
812 | - Other GNU programs to a small degree; on Unix. |

---|
817 | Modified key elements in Emacs (e.g., memory and process management) |
---|
818 | to work transparently on VMS. I have very good knowledge in the VMS |
---|
819 | operating system. I'm also knowledged in the a few Unix flavors. |

850 | I will help install badly-behaved source code packages, and have experience |
---|
851 | fixing them to conform to GNU standards. I will gladly help novices and |
---|
852 | intermediate computer users to understand, install, and use free software, |

853 | whether or not I have prior experience with that software. I know my |

861 | system without disrupting service. |

862 | |
---|
863 | I have over 2 years of experience with several of the major free OSes: |

932 | Background: I have extensive experience with programming under Unix, in C |
---|
933 | in particular (since 1983), with standards and specifications for Internet |
---|
934 | protocols (since 1987), International Standards for character sets and |
---|
935 | encoding schemes (since 1988), ISO 8879 SGML (since 1990, national head of |
---|
936 | delegation to ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 18/WG 8 since 1991), and ANSI X3.226 Common |
---|
937 | Lisp (since early 1994). I have been an Emacs user and programmer from |
---|
938 | 1984 to 1987 (TOPS-20) and from 1991 to present (Unix). since early 1994, |
---|
939 | I have worked on GNU Emacs development, in both Lisp and C, and since mid |
---|
940 | 1995, I have been tracking the development code. |
---|
941 | |
---|
942 | Services I offer the free software community include supporting Emacs users |
---|
943 | and programmers with expert advice (gratis on USENET or mailing lists where |
---|
944 | others may benefit), customizing and writing Emacs functions and packages, |
---|
945 | delivering courses and seminars from tutorials to writing Emacs Lisp and C |
---|
946 | extensions, and providing general aid with all GNU software. |
---|
947 | |
---|
948 | My standard rate is a flat USD 80 per hour or USD 2 per minute (you decide |
---|
949 | which time unit to apply), but to offset the cost of processing money, the |
---|
950 | minimum credit card charge is USD 100 and the minimum invoiced amount is |
---|
951 | USD 250. Discounts are available to worthy causes -- present your case. |

---|
953 | encourage remote work. (Courses and seminars are negotiated individually.) |
---|
954 | |
---|
955 | Please call only about actual work, I prefer mail for all other questions. |
