Even if you don't want to take me up on the offer, as posted below, I'd certainly appreciate any advice on roughly what to pay for this job request (how much do YOU think it's worth) and any questions that come to mind or any recommended additions or changes to the job description.  I'll use any advice to make this better before I post it on rentacoder.com and other such sites (assuming somebody doesn't jump on it from here).

I'm expecting to pay between $1000-$1500 but I'm open minded.

I only program on the side and my day job now expects 12 hour days everyday so I have no time to upgrade my site or my custom modules.  If anyone is interested in seeing the actual production site let me know and I'll email the link to you.  If anyone is interested in taking the job please let me know!  The job description is below.


Task Overview:  Upgrade two production DotNetNuke 3.2.2 (ASP.NET 1.1) websites to the latest DotNetNuke version utilizing the latest supported ASP.NET framework and provide updated custom module code (as required).  Custom module programming language used is VB.NET, utilizing a Data Access Layer (DAL), connecting to SQL Server (as required). 

The main website will require upgrading approximately 30 simple custom modules (code provided) and installing approximately 20 updated third party modules (provided).  The secondary website has only five third party modules (provided) to be installed and only two custom modules (only one additional from the main website) to be upgraded to the newest version (code provided). 

Architecture: The two websites are connected via the Inventua Pass-Through module to make the two websites appear to be one website (while allowing users to login only once and pass between the two websites seamlessly).  The MAIN website contains nearly all the functionality.  The SECONDARY website only has a handful of modules; these modules, however, would make the website blocked by the government target audience’s computers as government policy is to block websites with messageboards, blogs, etc.  This architecture allows only the SECONDARY website to be blocked while most of the functionality goes unblocked. 

The upgraded websites should contain the same content and functionality of the older website (except where functionality has been updated due to more recent third party modules).  User databases should remain the same with the “userid” remaining the same for each individual user.  The user database contains almost 7000 users. 

The MAIN website non-core modules are listed below (note: bolded module names are custom modules created by me while the rest are third party modules purchased by vendors)

View EMail

False

The SECONDARY website non-core modules include ActiveForums by ActiveModules, UltraPhoto Gallery, CuteChat, ReDirector, and Inventua PassThrough.  The only two custom modules are RynoBottomBanner and DarkSideWebService which is a simple custom web service.

 

 

Custom module code will be provided to interested developers to help them figure a price.  Custom modules should require limited coding changes, if any, to make them ASP.NET 2.0 compliant.  Admin access to the two production websites can be provided for this process, as well.

I am hiring a developer simply because I am not a professional programmer and my actual government service job now requires 12 hour days.  As a result, I have no time to upgrade my website.  It is my hope to get my website updated and develop a trusting relationship with a developer such that I can provide them future work enhancing my custom modules.

I'm interested in this job. However i have no development skills for your custom modules. I can succesfully upgrade and troubleshoot default configuration of DNN, i also write some tutorials about DotNetNuke in my English blog. English is not my main language but if you are interested in giving this job too a group (i would like to be a member of workers) drop me an email via /admin/ at (mynetnuke] no spam dot %com%.

Regards.

Thanks for the response Ismet.  I've decided to break the job down into two pieces.  First, the upgrading of my custom modules which shouldn't be a tough job.  I don't have the newest development environment set up and don't have the time to get it set up to do it myself thanks to Vista and VS.NET setup issues.  Anyway, once that is done I will then post a job simply for the upgrade of the website (and I'll provide the custom modules ready to be installed).

The job is on rentacoder: http://www.rentacoder.com/RentACoder/misc/BidRequests/ShowBidRequest.asp?lngBidRequestId=804823

Thanks again.

Ryno,

Even though I am communicating to you via RentACoder as well. you know it might be a better idea to leave it as one project.  An individual might be able to "Try" your upgrade and if your module mostly continue to work it would be a lot less to use that as a way of identifying the modules that are amiss....just a thought...
