GNU Service Directory
---------------------
This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering
support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee
or in some cases at no charge.
The information comes from the people who asked to be listed;
we do not include any information we know to be false, but we
cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to
you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct.
Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here.
We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of
any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact
service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one.
Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask
that you agree informally to the following terms:
1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution
of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone
in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software.
This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the
use of GNU software.
2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service
Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of
non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously
mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not
promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks.
Please include some indication of your rates, because otherwise users
have nothing to go by. Please put each e-mail address inside "<>".
Please put nothing else inside "<>". Thanks!
For a current copy of this directory, or to have yourself listed, ask:
gnu@gnu.org

Altrasoft provides corporate-quality support, development and user
documentation for GNU Emacs, XEmacs and InfoDock. (InfoDock is a turnkey
information management and software development toolset built atop emacs,
written by one of our associates.) Emacs distributions for a variety of
platforms are also available, as is support for other emacs variants, such as
those often found on PCs.
Our unique focus on emacs-related work allows us to attract expert talent in
this area to keep you on the leading edge of productivity, especially if you
do software development work. We do the porting, patching, coding,
integrating, debugging, documenting and testing so that your people spend
much more productive time on their mainline tasks.
Standard support packages include help on all aspects of the packages
supported, including all tools shipped as a standard part of the original
package distribution. In general, we want to give you an unbelievably strong
level of support, so where we can, we will also answer questions concerning
any add-on Lisp code that is used at your site. Setup and customization
help, bug fixes, and announcements of new releases are, of course, included.
Support rates start at $1,500 USD, for single user support for one year.
Discounts are available for group contracts. We also offer Golden Support
contracts for those who need the absolute best in mission-critical support;
contact us for details. Hourly development rates and fixed bid work are
available.

What I do:
Primarily I work on GNU software for VMS, both VAX and AXP. I've
been porting GNU Emacs to VMS since spring 1991. I've ported a
bunch of other GNU programs as well. I maintain GNU vmslib.
For further info, see http://www.lp.se/~levitte/prof/resume.html
Programs supported:
To a varying degree (ranging from extension and porting to
installation and simple questions) at the time of updating this
entry:
- GNU vmslib, emacs, autoconf, zip, diffutils, m4, patch, texinfo,
C/C++; on both VMS and Unix.
- Other GNU programs to a small degree; on Unix.
For further info, look at http://www.lp.se/products/gnu.html
Experience:
Fluent in TeX/LaTeX and many programming languages.
Modified key elements in Emacs (e.g., memory and process management)
to work transparently on VMS. I have very good knowledge in the VMS
operating system. I'm also knowledged in the a few Unix flavors.
For further info, see http://www.lp.se/~levitte/prof/resume.html
Your Rate:
$70-$100/hour (500-800 SEK in sweden), plus expenses. My rates
are negotiable, depending on how interesting the project is to me.

I will help install badly-behaved source code packages, and have experience
fixing them to conform to GNU standards. I will gladly help novices and
intermediate computer users to understand, install, and use free software,
whether or not I have prior experience with that software. I know my
limitations well, and will freely give other contacts if I do not want to
solve your problem myself.
I have installed and administered free and proprietary systems in home,
academic, and business environments. I have practical experience in most
aspects of Unix and network security. I know how to diagnose a complex
existing computer system and incrementally replace it with a superior free
system without disrupting service.
I have over 2 years of experience with several of the major free OSes:
Linux/GNU (Red Hat, Debian, Slackware), NetBSD, FreeBSD, and GNU/Hurd. I am
the maintainer of GNU Libtool and GNU DLD. Some of my specialties are:
Emacs, Automake, Autoconf, SANE, C, Perl, and shell script programming.
My rates start at $10 (Canadian dollars) per hour. When I am not starving, I
do not charge worthy non-profit organizations.

Background: I have extensive experience with programming under Unix, in C
in particular (since 1983), with standards and specifications for Internet
protocols (since 1987), International Standards for character sets and
encoding schemes (since 1988), ISO<53>8879 SGML (since 1990, national head of
delegation to ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 18/WG 8 since 1991), and ANSI X3.226 Common
Lisp (since early 1994). I have been an Emacs user and programmer from
1984 to 1987 (TOPS-20) and from 1991 to present (Unix). since early 1994,
I have worked on GNU Emacs development, in both Lisp and C, and since mid
1995, I have been tracking the development code.
Services I offer the free software community include supporting Emacs users
and programmers with expert advice (gratis on USENET or mailing lists where
others may benefit), customizing and writing Emacs functions and packages,
delivering courses and seminars from tutorials to writing Emacs Lisp and C
extensions, and providing general aid with all GNU software.
My standard rate is a flat USD 80 per hour or USD 2 per minute (you decide
which time unit to apply), but to offset the cost of processing money, the
minimum credit card charge is USD<53>100 and the minimum invoiced amount is
USD 250. Discounts are available to worthy causes -- present your case.
Time away from home is billed at USD 40 per hour around the clock to
encourage remote work. (Courses and seminars are negotiated individually.)
Please call only about actual work, I prefer mail for all other questions.
