SCALE needs help
by Orv Beach 03 Dec '06

03 Dec '06

With success comes more work, it seems like. As SCALE grows, so does the effort required to put it on. It doesn't grow exponentially; it doesn't even grow linearly; but it DOES grow. As we add to the advertising venues we use to promote SCALE, we find ourselves in need of another graphics artist. One more would relieve the workload on our current (excellent but overloaded) graphics designer. If you have experience doing logos and artwork, and creating graphics to media outlets' various submittal requirements, we REALLY could use your help. Experience with marketing communications is helpful, too. If the work can be done using Open Source tools, so much the better. The workload generally runs from August to February. It ranges from nothing to do to really busy. The pay is the same that all other SCALE volunteers get; that is, you get paid with a small amount of stress, a fair chunk of work, and a great amount of satisfaction that you've done more than your fair share in promoting Open Source software. Interested? We'd love have you join the merry SCALE team! Send your resume to info(a)socallinuxexpo.com

The final product would ideally be released under GPL for use by other community shows like SCALE. I don't think I will have much time to assist with PHP (mediocre skills notwithstanding) as I expect this will be a busy fall, but I look forward to helping the tech committee in any other way required. Please drop me a line as tasks require. Thanks, Steve G -- Steve Glasser Flying Pig Computer Svc. steve(a)fpig.net

Intro and volunteering
by Juan Jose Natera 28 Jun '06

28 Jun '06

Hi, My name's Juan Natera, I work as a Systems Analyst (LAMPerl), but I can do PHP as well, I wanted to volunteer to the technical committee. I have to admit having an ulterior motive though, I would like to someday help bring YAPC (Yet Another Perl Conference) to SoCal, so if you don't mind, and seeing how successful SCALE has been, I'd like to see how you do things around here. Best regards, Juan Natera
