Posting Sys Admin Jobs to mailing group

[billt-lxSQFCZeNF4 at public.gmane.org]

The policy the executive group has had for pushing on 7 years now, is that job postings is a direct benefit to the members on this list and are thus explicitly allowed. The rational was that anyone looking for work would have direct benefit by this policy, and everyone has an indirect benefit because allowing job postings gave companies easier access to the linux professionals in this city.

The only thing I believe we ask is that you reply in private to the poster, which means the poster should have a valid return to: email address.
