Paul, I ended up finishing the main part of my previous contract in way less time than I'd estimated, so I'd like to take this on. I think I can do it in about a month. Maybe less. But, I'd need more information in order to produce a time estimate. Do they have a more formal spec than the above, or would this have to be developed? Please disregard if you've found someone, of course. Lee
