Good luck with that! Speaking as one of the larger users I definitely feel there's a shortage of smart pragmatic people who know the product. Due partly to Kx's "eccentric" attitudes and partly due to the partner services company flooding the market with over-priced and under-experienced "engineers". The latter company really is a waste of time and effort but are unavoidable due to the way the product is sold. There are some smart guys out there including one at Kx I've tried to hire away without much luck just yet.
I also tired of the whole experience and have implemented a q compatible system. Linux only right now but its easily ported. I considered open sourcing but that would only help the company I'm not interested in helping.
