For example we've used and benefited from version control software for years, but we don't use bug tracking software. EXAMPLE SOFTWARE FEATURE IMPROVEMENT Right now our software sucks less than the competition. We'd like it to actually be good. One place we can improve is to make it easier for google and our competitors to grab our data. If we provide data dumps at zero $ cost and without licenses that prohibit competition, our organization will gain many partners. People who want to build better directories will have the tools to do this. We're using CGI::Application , Test::More , Test::WWW:Mechanize , etc To apply for this position you need: 1) to be a citizen or a permanent resident (have a green card) 2) to be willing to work fulltime for $16,000 per year and basic health insurance This is an Americrops/VISTA spot, you give a year of service and get (barely) enough to money to live on, the satisfaction of improving the world and some experience.
