Hi Greg,

He was correct that we are looking to make a "partnership" that involves
no cash up front. That tends to be what is implied by "partnership".
Each partner brings certain assets to the table and in return they get
their fair share of revenues/profits. In this case we are seeking a
partner who will bring programming talent to the table. We are bringing
the intellectual property, complete with an established player base, the
capital required to run the server/s, do the marketing, and ultimately
produce, warehouse and sell the commercial version.

If we were inclinded to pay cash up front for programming, then what you
have is a contract job, or you have hired on a staff member. There is no
implied partnership there.

That all being said, we *are* looking for a talented amateur that is
looking for their entryway into the business and can get the job done,
or a seasoned professional that is interested in such a business
partnership (who also can get the job done). As long as the job gets
done, I guess we'll take whomever is able to do it. :)
