<DIV>Hi All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One possible benefit of partnering on this project will be exposure at AED. I realize that in this economy that may not be a particularly exciting selling point. However, AED is a global nonprofit with over 250 programs and presence in all 50 states and over 150 countries. Though this initiative is funded through a grant from the Ford Foundation, with tight parameters, we have substantially larger government contacts. My area of expertise is in Web 2.0 applications, rather than Drupal, and we have done some good work in mobile solutions in developing countries. I am pressing for building robust capacity in portal development (most likely through Drupal) through training, hiring, consultancies, and subcontracts. To that end, I would very much welcome if you would mail me your CV's and marketing materials, if you are interested in being in the mix of prospects, to the address below, so that I can share those with our IT team for further review.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
<DIV>Best,</DIV>
