Some time ago, when looking for a developer of web projects, I was faced with a strong market stratification. The guys who are on the ear and do interesting things, are practically inaccessible if your budget is about 25 thousand dollars. But for a lot less money, a crowd of students grows up in front of you, ready for anything ... not guaranteeing high quality, clarity of performance and controllability (remote work, absence of office, etc., you know).
Guys, many of you live in this market and know it well. I ask for help - is there a happy medium? Responsible small Moscow team capable of making an information site (with a built-in community of a limited circle of people), which will automatically coordinate the distribution of certain tasks among the participants, receive electronic payments, ensure the accumulation of a knowledge base, exchange messages, a forum and stuff like that. And we need exactly the big-headed experienced guys, who initially think out the architecture well and bring in some useful ideas of their own. ')
And all this, yes, yes, for a handful of bucks 20-25 thousand dollars :)
