<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#984806'>Greetings. I’ve read through the
Developer’s Handbook, and see that the primary technologies are Perl,
databases, and HTML. I believe I can offer a lot in the short term database-wise,
and I can get back up to speed on Perl from years past if there are smaller tasks
that the dev team would like worked on.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

work well at all software levels, but am particularly skilled on the UI
