Denis,

If you have test-scripts that can be fired off against large (Think multiple 
TBs and thousands of files) datasets, let me know.
I got a machine where I can let a few scripts run without impacting production 
too much.
I don't have time to fully test myself, but if the scripts can run unattended 
and have consistency checks built-in with proper reporting, I can offer my 
services.
