I agree with Bob that Vitaliy needs a contractor, not necessarily because that's what's really needed, but because he can't get comfortable with a consulting arrangement. In particular he is not willing to trust a consultant's professionalism and is therefore not willing to let go of the details. Without a change in mindset, this would not work well neither for him nor the consultant. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
