Buon giorno Sauro,

This is probably not the best list to post to, as we are sort of
specialized on the topic of Ubuntu. However, there is plenty of work
here in the fields you mentioned.

I suggest that you join two other lists and post your inquiry there.

The first is the google group of hackerspace.sg, Singapore's first and
only (so far!) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_space . Direct link:

http://groups.google.com/group/hackerspacesg

The other is slugnet. This is a low-activity list, but it is read by a
lot of people. Direct link:

http://www.lugs.org.sg/mailman/listinfo/slugnet

As well, I and some associates have put together a registered society
(Singapore non-profit) named Free and Open Source Alliance
(Singapore)(FOSA). Though its activity level is rather low right now, we
are working to raise our profile and relevance. We just conducted a
successful Software Freedom Day (Singapore) event at the National
Library Building: http://softwarefreedomday.sg . So, please check out
FOSA and consider joining it if you plan to come here!:

http://fosa.sg

Finally, there are a number of job search sites in Singapore that you
can use:

http://www.jobsdb.com.sg/Singapore/

http://jobscentral.com.sg/

Feel free to write to me directly if there are any other questions you
have. I hope this helps!

Ciao
David Rigby
