[asterisk-biz] I need your skiils, but I can't hire you

[Rusty Dekema]

Ahh, I gotcha. I thought you meant basically the opposite :). It does sound
like a good idea.

Somebody could start a firm that would have a contractual relationship
(employer/employee, independent-contractor, whatever) with some asterisk
gurus and hire its services out to companies like yours. Companies like
yours could elect to keep configuration data regarding your system on file
with the support firm to aid in troubleshooting. The main stumbling block
that I see is reluctance on behalf of client companies to trust a
newly-formed firm with the passwords to their phone systems.
