Hey Luis,

This is actually a more appropriate job for you to shop through your
LUGs, this is for a job at a great startup ran by some super sharp
guys i worked with in the past (former CTO and dev rock star).  Super
good, super smart guys with an interesting problem for super linux
kernel/systems hacker.

Check it.
Pete
