Is anyone out there willing to give me private org mode
support / advice consultation? I can pay via pay pal, personal check in
the mail or am open to other payment forms.
Here is the ideal
person:
- very familiar with org-mode - low hourly rate - able to view
my desktop remotely - familiar with mac os-x and its interaction with
org-mode - knowledgeable of unix/linux and emacs - able to hold
my hand while I move from MacMail to terminal mailer such as one that
lives in emacs, mutt, etc.
- available live (e.g. via phone / skype) from a time that significantly
overlaps with approx 10am to 12pm California time (that's approx 6pm to
8am GMT). - familiar with GTD workflow / philosophy etc -
proficient in English
You don't have to fit the above perfectly.
If you are
interested, please email me back, tell me a little about yourself. Send
me your resume / CV if easy. And an estimate of your hourly rate in US
$.
I am a technically proficient research scientist at a major US
university. For example, I am proficient
enough in unix to know what "awk -F/, '{print $1 " " $3}' foo.csv" means
or able to transpose a matrix in R and able to write my own emacs
macros.
You might say, hey, rather than pay money, I could post
my questions to this mailing list? However, etiquette requires due
diligence -- searching, experimentation, manual reading etc *before*
posting. For me, this is a slow process. I am finding that these days I just have too many demands on
my time to perform the due diligence. Result: months go by and I just don't ask the question and am
stuck with using only the simplest of all org-mode capabilities I think I have uncovered
various bugs but can't report them because ensuring that they are a bug
requires a lot of time. For this reason I am hoping to use money to
help me break through these time-related barriers.
Thanks!

p.s. I searched the manual and faq for the word "consult" and also did some cursory searching on this mailing list before posting.
