I looked at the name and saw 'kuhustle'. It conjures the image of 'do anything to make money'

Good idea.
Does the name "hustle" denote good or bad tidings.. Although it has been sanitised locally to mean an extra coin, when I googled it, the first results were "Anythin you need <http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=need> to do to make money... be it sellin cars, drugs, ya body. If you makin money, you hustlin."
I was thinking on the lines of lsk, iekenya, icpak.
Just my take.

There is something along those lines in kuhustle.com currently in beta, invites to the platform are references, so you invite people known to you as good service providers and then people bid for jobs.
If this answers your question request for an invite, feedback can also be given to better it as the service is in beta.

Dear All,
Is there a database of local developers with their specialities where one can push jobs depending on the need.
I've just had a guy looking for a developer to assist in a simulation project, i suggested python and getting a free developer is a problem.
I've interacted with fundis and i admire the way they work. They always know their fellow fundis such that fundi wa mawe will not pretend to do wiring or piping but will always have names of other fundis specialized in other areas.
Food for thought to us coders!
