I originally posted this on Dribbble, but I think it might actually be of more interest here. This was ultimately an experiment in software marketing, so what follows in as a postmortem for others to learn from. Hope you, guys, find it usef

If you want an answer, drop me an email. I'd rather not disuss this in public, but we have no hiring restrictions per se. In fact, we routinely contract out bits of work.
