I'd help. I've reviewed resumes as a manager before so that's the extent of my training/ability. - Mel Profit Nov 14, 12:05 3
- The "who" would be low-income, ex-cons, etc. You'd get multiple referrals a day from public libraries once the word got out. -- nm - mara Nov 14, 12:14
- The abstract site is for developers who are getting started on the conference circuit. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 14, 12:12 1

who's in charge of that? is that a spamlet question? (I wouldn't mind doing this, honestly. heavy volume would be an issue but - spy cookie amanda jones Nov 14, 12:00 4

    - Well, if Bery went that route, it would be incorporated in Canada. -- nm - mara Nov 14, 12:14
I think it would have to be a nonprofit, I wouldn't really feel comfortable charging folks - Beryllium Nov 14, 12:00 8
- I don't mean nonprofit vs profit. I mean incorporating rather than just doing it informally. -- nm - mara Nov 14, 12:08 2
  - But I mean, from the perespective of me wanting a "lifestyle business", it wouldn't work -- nm - Beryllium Nov 14, 12:11 1
    - Right, that's one of the reasons I wondered if it would be worth it (worth your time, for one thing) to incorporate. -- nm - mara Nov 14, 12:15
- do we have to *incorporate* to help people? -- nm - spy cookie amanda jones Nov 14, 12:06 4
  - Certainly not at first. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 14, 12:10 2
    - so whatever. I'm in. right? mel is too. so if you feel like setting it up, let me know what you need from me. - spy cookie amanda jones Nov 14, 12:13 1
      - Ok. Can't guarantee a rush, of course, but progress is nice. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 14, 12:21
  - No, but if you do, you can get grants and donations and stuff. -- nm - mara Nov 14, 12:09
