Hello
We are building scalable email service with web-access to IMAP-backend. Initial system is for 50k users and expandable with 50k blocks.
Roundcube looks most promising candidate as web-client, but we anticipate that RC roadmap wont match exactly with ours, so we are looking for experienced roundcube developers to make some modifications in coming months.
Terms would be roughly:
- new features/files remains under GPL and returned to community,
to be merged in official source if applicable
- compensation agreed case-by-case, either lump sum per feature or
hour compensation
One feature we are looking for is search, no specs yet, however.
If you are interested this kind of development please reply to juha.kumpulainen@gmail.com
Thanks for great product!

1.) Why would you want to "buy" a developer? Hire a free-lancer if you want implemented features. Also, the development of Roundcube is slow as it is, and you'd detract from the speed of development by having a developer work for you.
2.) If you're implementing this on such a huge level, don't you think you should wait for a non-beta software to be used? I mean, do you really expect 50k users to use it every day and not have issues? And why pre-beta software? That's one of the craziest thing I've ever heard. You're setting yourself up to fail.
3.) The search function is already implemented in the CVS versions. So that's one feature down.....
