Main Body:
----------
     The HTML Writer's Guild (HWG) is searching for a devoted
individual to create an online "Request for Proposal" (RFP) system
for Web-Related Services.

     All posting, maintenance, and access to the system will take place
via forms on the Web.

     Approval should be done through online forms on the Web, but we
would allow approval through e-mail if that is not possible.  This can
be discussed in detail, and decided apon at a later date.

     After approval, the RFPs would then be mailed (via email) to
subscribers of a mailing list.  Eventually we will want to allow the
subscribers to subscribe by telling us what skills they posses, and
only send them the RFPs for which they have skills (according to a
profile that they set up).

     Our priority is to have the system operational by the end of
April.  If need be, the subscription by skills can wait to be
implimented until after the opening of the service.

     After being e-mailed, the RFPs would then be stored in a
searchable archive.  RFPs should be dated so that the search will
only show valid RFPs (we don't want people to get Proposals after the
project is completed!).

individual to create an online "Request for Proposal" (RFP) system for
