Drupal Programmer and Core Team Member | by Swarm
My name is Mike Bohlmann, and I would like to build a core team of three to five people to form the company that enables the environment for the untapped creative minds of the Swarm to produce something new. While the first project for the Swarm will be to create a role-playing game setting, I hope to learn enough from the Swarm and this development model that the Swarm could get involved in other creative endeavors, most likely still in the non-electronic gaming field. As a member of the core team, you would be both microinvestor and part of the company.

I will be using this for a Learning Management solution.

I will be using the apache solr module. That part seems to work fine.
