Hi Eric,

Ideal candidates will also demonstrate the following skills: - Use of the wxPython user interface library - Experience with Geophysics applications - Experience in the fields of statistics, linear algebra and calculus

How much closer can you get ;-) Yes, I am a geotechnical engineer, yes I did work for GeoDelft (*the* company for geophysics in Holland and developers of the widly used MSerie (settlement, stability, foundations, groundwaterflow etc. etc.)), yes I have Python and 3+ years of programming experience (mostly Delphi and C++).. and yes.. uhm.. I do write English :-) And most of all; my current project (eating up my spare time) http://pyciv.sourceforge.net is a 'geophysical' project. I never thought anyone else would think of writing a geophysical tool with Python. But then... No.. I do not live anywhere near Austin.. Why do these things only happen in the USA :-) Good luck with the candidates, Rob ps. I realy hope your application will be open source. It is about time we get some good open source engineering tools. pps. Thanks for chaco and scipy. I use them in pyciv and they make calculations easy and graphical output of the results look very smooth indeed.
