I emailed them and they said that they were getting tons of offers for help and they gave me an interest form to give my details. The interest form even asked if you wanted to be compensated for your work, so it reads like they are not hurting for help all that much

I wonder how many of these institutions will take modernization projects more seriously now that their leaders see the cost of immense technical debt starting in front of them.
