Hmm... It's ok if "hire developer" web site will not fully pays off - I think

I could find job oppurtunities on that web site if I'll create one.

Timeconsuming could be handled through decent error handling, self-describing and

self-documenting errors, through which support / maintenance time would also go down.

I have done once some mailing list + web forum from scratch (approximately 10 years ago)

- but things has changed a lot since then - also requires bit different area of expertise.

Meanwhile, I'll contact you directly if we could establish some cooperative development if possible...

I think main question of my still remains unanswered - who owns / controls debian.org web site, and

can I host new web site under it...

You should setup your own site and then you can submit a request to the
Debian Consultants page which will list your Enterprise...

Of course, it must be Debian related, which mean, you code a software,
pack it correctly for the Debian Distribution (=> your customer can
install it flawless on th Debian System) and if youhave sold e.g. 100
Licences of your BIN Package, relese your software under GPL and request
a sponsor for the Upload to the Debian Mirror.

Note: I have coded a software like this, but ist is TIMECONSUMING
and currently not completely payed (not gotten my costs back)
and now I use this software in my Internet Service in Germany
to get the costs back...

Coding such software andd selling it, includes support for years, which
could be not very funny and you will have never success with this
business modell, if you do not offer support und bugfixes!

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
Michelle Konzack
