[dba-VB] How to find a programming contractor

I have a client who has just spent a very frustrating and expensive two
years getting an Access database of mine converted to a full web based
system using  C#/Silverlight/ASP.NET.  The system is now in production, but
with a lot of bug cleanup to be done.  My client isn’t happy with the
(offshore) programming and would like to transfer any future development
and maintenance work to another company or programmer.  Having been burned
once with a company he found himself, he’s asked me to help him find a
better alternative.  Unfortunately, I haven’t a clue about finding a decent
programmer.   Does anyone in the group have any suggestions, or interest in
this project?  The work is currently about 20 hours/week but would probably
decrease somewhat as the system is beaten into shape.  Other requirements
(other than good references) would be a location within 3 time zones of
Texas and good communication skills in English.


Thanks,

Doug
