Hey all you Linux fans.

I am looking for anyone who can do web development or knows of those who
would be willing to help with web development or application development of
the website to become the public face for BOINC (http://boinc.berkeley.edu).
This site is www.gridrepublic.org.  I am volunteering as PR and Marketing
person for them and before we can launch into full public view with
marketing, advertising, and PR we need help to complete the site.  The site
is currently being developed by volunteers and is down currently as we add
new features.  

I have contacted you before about BOINC.  If you don't know what that is
look here: http://www.boinc-wiki.info/Main_Page

Currently I have NVIDIA interested in helping us and Dell is starting to
look into this.  If anyone knows of any local businesses or persons that
would be willing to help support our efforts in any way let me know.  If you
have contacts for companies that would be great too.  GridRepublic is a
registered nonprofit.

I am looking for anyone who would be willing and interested in testing it on
Linux, Windows, or Macs.  This program is cross platform compatible.

If anyone would be interested in partnering with GridRepublic or would like
to join me in the efforts to raise more awareness and bring more computing
power helping to cure cancer, AIDS, and doing research in areas of
nanotechnology, physics, astronomy, biology, medicine, mathematics, etc.
Most projects release their findings to the public.  The Large Hadron
Collider even used a program to help make sure the beam was controlled
correctly.

Please let me know and I hope you can help me make connections.
