Should we now expect a third similar opportunity, since things happen in threes?

Hi Earle, Jo, Saul

this job offer from Michael Heimbinder from www.habitatmap.org who I met at the Banff Center last November at the Almost Perfect residency.

He's got a great project doing collaborative mapping of environmental hazards and info in Brooklyn and we had a look at using openguides, wikis and openstreetmap as a way of doing that without reinventing wheels which looks like it's borne fruit.

I think he's planning smart phone UI too and has a phone dev on board already so could get some mass uptake there too - and it might be interesting to get a new public openguides input out of it too I guess.

Do drop him a line if you are interested.. I think it'll go out on the perl lists soon too.

cheers
