Hi there

My name is Leon.

Do you want to help make New Zealand a better place to bring up our kids?

A couple of months ago I got involved with building a website for a well known journalist. Little tricky to get into details, as the site and the media release of the launch haven't happened yet, but this is a fairly influential media personality that works tirelessly to try and improve NZ society - free from political ties.

I'd like to find another Drupal developer or two to help me realize this project.

The site is 95% complete and due to go live this week, so this is more about the future development of the site and maintaining it.

My expectations are that the site may peak drastically with heavy user load and have a very high visitor numbers in general so good sysadmin (ie. VPS management) skills and experience with Drupal under heavy load would be very valuable.

Bit hard to be inspiring without giving details, but anyone interested or want to know more please post and I'll get in touch with the full details.

So if you ever wanted to give a little to make NZ better? I'd really like to hear from you.

Thanks, great suggestion.

A wee bit out of the current budget though. The site will be on either Net24/WD VPS/Cloud Server.

In production

Hi guys,

The site's in production now so it may fill in gaps of what you'd be volunteering for:

I've got to say, drupal on a VPS with boost and nginx is pretty wicked.

Next production step is mobile, finishing off various elements which didnt quite get there and undrupalising a few user forms.

Cheers
