I hope readers of LAD might find the following useful, and I wonder if
you'd mind posting it for me. Linux audio developers have been
interested in these posts in the past.

Please note that my understanding of employment legislation is that we
are unable to employ personnel from outwith the European Union unless
it can be demonstrated that the required skill set does not exist
within the EU (which in this case it certainly does)

Here's the post...
