Guidance from a moderator

Question

Before I ask my real question I should probably find out if I'm in the right place. I'm looking for a person to help with the electronics design for a new project I'm starting. It's not a full time employment type search but more of a "let's start a part-time business" type of search. Can I post the specifics of that type message here?

Hi Larry, Is it only a single person you are looking to help? If so post in a relevant group, embedded, communication etc depending on your type of project. Far better is to let the community help you. You can go to the relevant group, and either start a thread called "project- name", and get advice there, or just post individual questions to the appropriate group. If you need any help send me a pm, Ally

It seems to me that information aboug designing a particular type of circuit should be posted to the appropriate forum, but information about starting a new business is not part of what Element-14 is intended. To minimize the possibility that someone might try to "steal" your idea, do not mention that you are starting a new business, but only ask for the design help that you need.
