True, Victor, true. And what's more, Ken has expanded the geographical scope of his search to include people outside of the D.C. area, yeah? More budget means more capable eyes. Less limits on who lives where also means more capable eyes.

I'm really glad I decided to respond to this thread. I weighed the possible outcomes, one of which might have been me flame-toasing a Seeker. But, seeing as I've gotten my point across without looking like an ass (this time), my best hope for this RFP would be that Ken finds some more calendar time for the project and that whomever takes it on will not be a budding-yet-eager Drupal dev who gets 80% of the way there yet runs out of money or time. Or both.

Ken, best of luck to you, sir. You seem to have a really interesting website to build!

And with the acknowledgement that custom dev would be more, and with the acknowledgement that it depends also on the real requirements (word conversion? yes? no?).
