Programmer needed - SQL PHP and...

Dear List:

This may be a bit off-topic. Sorry about that.

I have a long term software development project that I require help with. 
We are a K-12 independent school in Connecticut.

The software is now in it's third version, and we are embarking on version
four (from scratch). 
I anticipate this will be an ongoing project for years to come (in
progress 7 years now).

What we have currently represents a small subset of the capabilities we
will eventually implement. 
It is implemented in our email/groupware system (FirstClass) but the plan
is to abandon that platform due to performance and GUI limitations.

This **may** be implemented as a LiveCode client, but so far I have
thought in terms of an SQL/php backend, web frontend. Down the road, an
iOS client will be needed.

To give a thumbnail sketch:
Data comes in from many sources:
Blackbaud (our Student Information System), the College Board testing
service (SAT scores, ACT, other tests), on-line forms....lot's of tab
delimited data. 

In addition, people (using the system) add more data to the related
records. Point is - this is more than a viewer - it's also a system for
adding and tracking data on students.

Eventually, this will become the basis for a number of in-house systems
that groups (such as the IT dept, College Counseling dept., Student
Health, etc) will use.

Anybody want to discuss this more? I have a short lead time - I need
version 4 for June.

Thanks!
