[Queue-developers] $$$ for GQ port???

[Werner G. K. <wer...@ya...>]

I tried to give the GNU Queue developers first crack at this offer, but
it doesn't look like this company is planning to spend a lot on this
deal.

Most Genuine Certified GQ Developers (TM) :) have good jobs and are
doing this thing basically for love of art, so I'm not sure we can
create a market here.

If anyone else is interested, you should contact me. I'm trying to get
them to actual put a low dollar figure on this, so that people have a
better sense of whether or not to accept this.

In particular, GQ users/programmers in Israeli might be interested
because the various barriers (monetary, legal, geographical) to getting
the deal would presumably be lower for you than for transnational
workers.

I've removed contact information from the message below because I don't
if the company wanted this information distributed.
