You need to specify what skills you are looking for? Are you looking for people who develop and take bitcoin for payment? are you seeking html, php, java skills? Is it for a desktop application to be developed?

You can hire people from:
* freelancer (usd only)
* fiverr (usd only)
* digitalpoint (you can find developers who accept bitcoins)
(thats only to name a few) But its hard to really make a recommendation with so little info.

But, I have had *shit* experiences with all those 3 options, with only a few positive experiences with all 3. Fiverr is possibly the most risk free, (as payment held in an escrow style manner until job delivered).

Just remember when hiring, whatever the cost estimate is, expect it to be double. Whatever the time frame is expected to be, expect it to take 5 times longer.

If you're looking for consultants, I can connect you with some folks in San Francisco. Private message me or post your email and I can reply directly.

[Getting to my newbie post-count up - this is a bit off-topic but I'd rather say something meaningful that spam for post-count]

If someone is looking to hire 3-4 developers with skills who could work on a bitcoin related project, where would they go?

Has anyone had good/bad experiences in this or other forums?

I've been working on a github "map" of the top bitcoin developers by code output, as well as looking at various forums. One small difficulty is figuring out that the same people may have many different pseudonyms on different boards, so it is hard to know how big the community of devs is...

Thoughts or comments?
