Hi, I found one directory here: http://www.opensourcexperts.com/Index/index_html/Python/index.html I can't vouch for the completeness or quality of the list (in general the PSF can't recommend any particular provider). Not all of them are focusing on programming services. You'll probably want to start with the above and develop your own list of those that you trust. I also saw a few companies advertising on Google when I searched on "python consultants". The job board would also be a reasonable place to announce to get applications from people that would like to be in your pool: http://www.python.org/community/jobs/ Hope that helps. -- Stephan Deibel Chairman of the Board Python Software Foundation http://python.org/psf Collis, Chris wrote:

Guido van Rossum suggested I forward this email to you. I contacted him earlier this week regarding the inquiry below. Please read.

...

Our company produces hardware for both wired and wireless device networking. We recently launched a wireless gateway that supports Python for programmability. Our customers use this gateway as part of an end-to-end wireless sensor network and Python to add application-specific data intelligence. We are looking to assemble a group of third party Python developers or Python shops that we can refer customers to who need support in developing scripts to support their intended application.

Do you have any organizations/individuals you might recommend who could partner with us in such a capacity or another resource I might pursue to find such partners? We are a global company and ideally would like partners who can support global opportunities or partners in North America, Europe and Asia who specialize in those regions.

Feel free to contact me directly if you would like further information or clarification.

Thanks much, Chris Collis Digi Int'l Product Marketing 952 912 3150
