It would've been fine even if it was, Bruce. This is the
"General" list. As long as it's PHP-related, you're fine. However,
I'd concur with Stut's note, and add that it's probably not even
practical to do a group retainer --- this is, without undue bias, one
of the best, most diverse, most professional core group of folks in
any developer-focused community on the web today. It's all a matter
of asking the right questions and taking advantage of the situation -
so long as you're willing to *give back* as well.
