Where Can I Find Linux Porters?

David asks: "Many small software developers would love to get their software up and running on Linux, but where can competent Linux porters be found? I ask because, a while ago, I released a shareware game called Lugaru. I developed it for Mac OS with the intention of porting it to Windows and Linux. I was able to easily find several developers willing to port it to Windows at a reasonable cost (a fair portion of the sales) but I am clueless about how to find people with the Linux expertise. It is frustrating because I get many emails and forum queries asking me about a Linux version. I really want it to happen and am willing to pay - the problem simply is that I don't know how to go about finding Linux developers. So, I ask Slashdot."

    I love it when a troll does something like this! I lost a mouth full of coffee when I read the parent post!

    I'd be willing to bet the "team" referred to in the GP post is a group of college students who need money. Some people I know were thinking about doing something like this to make some extra money. They abandoned the idea, of course.
