I'm kinda keen, and am in somewhat of the same boat as you Steve; I have
jobs but not enough staff or time to accept them and so pass them on to
others.

I also have other jobs where my physical location (New Zealand) makes it
hard for me to travel onsite.

Obviously you'd want to be able to continue operating as your own
company too as we have significant existing arrangements with partners.

Another problem I see with this is the generation of contracts that span
borders. I'm not sure I'd want to sell a system into New
Zealand/Australia that was governed by US laws (and therefore US patents).

I'm kinda seeing this as a loose consortium - what do you think?
