[consulting] How is the market for Drupal talent?

[Tao Starbow]

Hi Drupal Consulting List,

I have been chewing over leaving a stable, but increasingly confining 
university job and jumping into the Drupal biz.  And then I read how 
were are in the worst global economic situation since the great 
depression, and wonder if I am crazy for even thinking about it.  But, 
on the other hand, Drupalcon just maxed out at 1400 people over a month 
before the actual con.

So, how are you folks doing?  Struggling for every lead, turning 
business away, or somewhere in between?

thanks,
