Hi Xarayians:
Thanks for your consideration, and feel free to forward this time sensitive 
job or cofounder offer to any relevant lists you wish.
Since i am not a suscriber, it is important that you respond to my own email 
address: DavidvGoliath-Re5JQEeQqe9fmgfxC/sS/[email protected] Since i am not a tecky myself, and more of 
a phone guy, it's best to call as well.
The job desc is below, and is fairly urgent. Given our finances, we are open 
to a combination local architect (or someone qualified to
supervise) who has an outsource partner.

Yours truly, for courage,truth and justice, Gary Krane PhD Pres., David v 
Goliath Services (fundraising and media), Founder, FairElections

Wanted: Killer Category Social Venture startup needs Skilled Experienced 
Xaraya programmer and/or architect /co-founder partner(s)
Email:           [email protected]


Our startup, almost two years in the making, will be taking the web 2.0 
movement from relationship creation (social
networking) to the next natural step--relationship maintenance, growth, and 
enrichment, specifically for the 60M couples in USA and Europe who are 
unhappy with their relationships and are wishing to save and ensure, or 
otherwise revitalize their relationships. And we will be tapping the almost 
universal need for connection and stronger relationships and using that to 
help stop war, genocide, and save the planet!


The opportunity: to pioneer this new movement (web 3.0? ) with an 
application that could do wonders to prevent affairs and divorces, and 
revitalize relationships, and thereby prevent mountains of suffering for 
hundreds of thousands of marriages and committed relationships, every year, 
plus help save the planet and stop war and genocide as
well:


Founder is longtime committed social/environmental activist and wants his 
own net revenues to go to prevent war, genocide, and stop global warming, 
bring democracy to America. (I am founder of FairElections)


We developed an earlier beta tested prototype in asp, that got rave reviews, 
led to some great things,  but was not sufficiently sticky, then blew 5 mo 
with a poorly supervised effort using an Indian coder in php. So hopefully 
this will finally be doing things the right way.


HOURS
Can be shortterm: 3-4 weeks, and then half time during the beta test, and 
could turn into fulltime position (if you so desire) once funding arrives.
Estimated time to produce beta: 150 hrs (but maybe 100 if xaraya can already 
do lots of what we need)

LOCATION: You can be anywhere, though of course bay area preferred, but 
willing to relocate temporarily to your town if i can find a friend to put 
me up week or two. If architect or superviser here, programmer can be in 3rd 
world country if verifiably first rate.


GOAL: We need to produce a beta testable app asap


We are also open to making parts of this app free to the public and the OPEN 
SOURCE community


REQUIREMENTS:


1) Core Requirements:
Generation and validation of roughly 14 forms, with permissions ranging from 
the results being  single user accessible to accessible to both members of a 
linked up party (husband and wife)


2) Some features require 2 parties be logged in at once to read/write 
Private data sharing specific only between 2 linked up parties Some graphs 
based on simple analysis of the forms (to reproduce existing functionality; 
it mostly is simply a 1-1 relationship between certain answers and certain 
graph values ... less than 10 data points)


COMPENSATION:
We are not yet funded, and have been using my savings for past two years. So 
I prefer a partner who will work fulltime plus on equity basis; and  I can 
spend at least another $2500 if necessary ,  plus large backend and less 
equity, plus:


willing to also commit $20k (negotiable) from net revenues first 6months, to 
fund your own project if focused on helping to society or the planet.


 FUNDING SITUATION:  W e are optimistic about getting funded soon. ( We have 
crackerjack well connected fundraising team--two guys at google, and one 
former high up at Oracle.You can meet them if in Bay
area.)
In fact just today (Dec 20th) , heard from two strongly interested angels. 
Also as former filmmaker and political fundraiser, I myself have raised more 
than $1.5M for previous projects. (I am googlable.)


Plus:
and if you continue to stay on past first beta test, giving you first right 
of refusal for ongoing chief engineer or architect position.


If you get the beta done and working correctly, we are also willing to make 
deal to fund your own future programming project if has strong 
social/environmental value for up to $20k from profits of our startup.



Ø    We were also a finalist in the UC Berkeley Business Plan competition.

Ø    Kaiser Permanente already wants to beta test us (they have 8.4M 
members)


ADDITIONAL Requirements:
Able to start immediately and passion to be working on something that has 
potential for preventing lots of suffering and helping in other critical 
areas too (preventing genocide, war, stopping global warming), since all of 
founder's own profits will go to these causes.


To apply:
Please Call Gary 510 832 4033, or email me at [email protected] or 
DavidvGoliath. Subject box: Xaraya developer (or architect with
developer) and your contact info and any true applications sites you've 
done. Feel free to call ANY time; don't mind being woken up for this.
