The OSVDB project has been growing steadily for the last 2 years.  
At first the software behind OSVDB was simple, and easily maintained
by a single person with others contributing smaller pieces.

Since the "Go Live" of the project, the development team has been
swamped with an unexpected amount of pending work.  This includes
bugs, small feature requests, and new major functionality.

The OSVDB Development team is currently looking for help.  We are in
need of developers to help manage the development work load.  
If you're interested please forward a technical resume to:
moderators at osvdb.org

Requirements include, Familiar with the following:
-Web Applications
-Linux (Gentoo preferred)
-Apache Web Server
-PHP
-SQL (PostgreSQL, PGplsql preferred)
-OpenSSH
-CVS
-XML (XMLRPC, Soap, XSLT etc...)

Why should you develop for OSVDB?  Developing for OSVDB is very rewarding.

- The OSVDB project is extremely popular and your work will receive the
  proper attention.

- Developing for OSVDB will bring accreditation and exposure to your technical
  ability and provide an additional resume item if interested.

- Your efforts will help increase the level of security worldwide.

- The OSVDB project is made possible by a massive backend web application that
  autonomously handles workload distribution, editing, moderation, 
  user scoring, and vulnerability status.

- Work on a team that is influencing the way the security industry gets
  vulnerability information.
