We need your help

Yup, that's right, we (as in myself and Tim Ireland) need your help with a couple of projects. Both are non-partisan (from a political perspective) and more details are available on the projects here. In addition, I'm looking for a list of people prepared to invest some sweat equity into National Service. So, if you have any of the following skills and are willing to help out, please let me know in the comments below this post.

Skills I'm looking for are:


  • ASP.Net - Framework 2.0

  • C#

  • Ajax

  • SQL Server - primarily T-SQL

The longer term project is to extend and enhance the National Service back-end, but initially I'd like to take the Labour Election Return project forward, with a port from classic ASP and VBScript to .Net and beef up the search functionality. Hopefully the Election Return project can then be spun off to be run by an organised group of volunteers, and be in a position to not only complete the 2005 return for all the major parties, but also make the next election returns available asap. Think of it as an "It's your money they're spending" public service site. Not only would you be able to see what our elected representatives do for us via TheyWorkForYou.com, but you'd also be able to see what they spent getting there.

I don't know any of the knowledge you require, ASP.Net etc, but I'd like to help with data entry or other things that don't require specialist knowledge/skills, if needed.
