At first I thought this was just a repost of
a message from a week ago, but it is, in fact,
a revision.  Other than some trivial re-formatting
and typo correction, these are the differences:

$ diff consult.txt consult-new.txt
6c6
<  Linux J2ME consultant(s).
---
>  an embedded Linux/C consultant(s).
21c21
< Mobile Embedded Linux architect
---
> Embedded Linux architect
34c34
< Linux, strong knowledge of Java ME(J2ME),
---
> Linux and C. Any knowledge of Java ME(J2ME) is a plus,

So it seems that in the last week the project has
been changed from Java to C.

You could take this as a sign that they are open to
doing it in your favorite language, or you could take
this as a sign that they have no idea what they are
doing, but would love to have a consultant to blame.

But you had better hurry

because you are already late.
