Good XUL job in NYC

Hey all,

My team is currently embarking on a rather ambitious XUL application and we
could really use someone with some strong XUL/RDF/Javascript experience.
It's a good gig. I can pay good rates, we've got good agile methodologies,
and we're actually building a complex, stand-alone application.

Obviously I'd prefer someone near NYC for quality knowledge transfer, but
I'd be willing to do this remotely for the right person. If you know someone
who'd be interested, let me know. I've attached a job description below.
Feel free to post it/pass it along at will. And thanks for your help.

Cordially,
Ryan
