Where is the best place to find potential CTO/Head Programmers for a start-up?

Beyond reaching out to contacts and getting referrals, is there any places or resources to look for CTO/head programmer candidates in the market for new projects and start-ups?

Is this yet another variant of the question: Where can I find a programmer to implement my great startup idea? That gets asked here about once a month, and the reaction is generally fairly contemptuous.

Yep it's a variant of that. Those links above are what I'm looking for, so if any others have some suggestions, sprinkle them with a little contempt, I'll take em!

The Mos Eisley Cantina.

Seriously though, isn't there a FAQ about this somewhere?
