Some people I read on HN are great developers. I'm not. But I'm pretty good at setting up, optimizing and maintaining servers/VPSs for web serving (ubuntu, nginx, mysql, php, rails). Drop me an email at tj@intlect.com if you want some help.
Please note I just "don't do Apache". nginx is just so fast and gentle on memory usage that I haven't actually needed to deploy anything on Apache in more than 3 years.
