Wher does one post a software development requirement?
« on: April 04, 2009, 07:17 AM »
Hallo!
To anyone who can help.
I have a question which is;
"Where does one post a requirement for a piece of software which one wishes to have developed"?
I was under the impression that this is a key orientation of the site, but there are no directions to find an appropriate slot to insert such a post and get it distributed to interested potential developers.
Or is it that such a potential customer is expected to set up a new project into which he inserts his post?
Any help will be kindly appreciated.
Kind regards, forkinpm.

We have a section where people can post requests/ideas for relatively small tools here:
http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?board=71.0

For larger ideas, you could just post them in this General Software Discussion if you are comfortable doing so, and at least get a discussion going about it.

I am very confused by the term "customer". When you add "development" all of a sudden you end up with "company" and this is where all the legal "fun" starts: contracts, liabilities, deadlines, recovery of damages, penalty clauses.

I want to make a point of the fact that we (donationcoder.com) are NOT a company.
