[Namron] Namron Webminister position now open

[Ulf Gunnarsson]

I am opening the office of baronial webminister for applications.  I
have performed the duties for a while now and it is only fair to give
other people a chance to add their vision into the barony.  I would like
to close the applications by the end of June so the new webminister can
get on the July roster warrant.

So who should apply?  Anyone interested in holding an office, has a
computer, internet access, and some programming or web development
skills.  It doesn't take a rocket scientist (oh, wait - that's me...) It
doesn't take someone who does web development for a living (technically
I don't anymore...) Previous knowledge of how to build web pages and
place them on a server will be a definite plus, though.  You also have
to be a paid member, have reliable telephone or email, and willing to
spend an hour or two a week doing this.

Make a copy of your membership card and your driver's license.  If you
are going to be applying electronically, this can just be a scanned
image.

The very first link on http://www.ansteorra.org/publications/forms/ is
the official Application for Office.  Fill it out and save it.  You
*must* send this application to the Northern Regional Webminister, the
seneschal, the baron, and me.  The Northern Regional *must* also get the
copy of your membership and driver's license.  If the four people
mentioned here don't get the application, you don't get the job, no
matter how much you've talked about wanting it while sharing a jug of
mead with all four of them.

I also suggest checking out http://webminister.ansteorra.org/ to see
what else is required and what is available.  The server information can
be found at http://dreamhost.com/hosting.html where whole alphabet soup
of programming languages and software available are listed.

If you have questions, please drop me an email at
vs_namron at ansteorra.org ... not on the mailing list.

And Ithrael does not necessarily come with this job.  You'll have to
negotiate your own contract with the baronial shutterbug... :)
