Entirely different repository. That's for configuring the zonefile for
exim.org itself, back when it was Lua-based and using
GitHub/webhooks/LuaDNS before we switched to something which would
support DNSSEC.

Sure, we're open to people posting looking for contractors for Exim
development.

My own schedule is tight for the next couple of months (minimum) so I
can't take this on.

<https://github.com/Exim/exim/wiki/Commercial> is where most of these
are listed; the page is open to editing by anyone with a GitHub account,
so these aren't vetted. I will note that "Heiko Schlittermann" is one
of the two people (together with Jeremy) currently doing most of the
Exim development work, so if I were looking to hire, I'd start there.
