[OT] Availability of Jobs -- was Re: [SOLICITATION] Programmer available for contracting..

[Gunther Birznieks]

I notice that there have been many more job postings from employment 
seekers have occurred in the last few weeks versus jobs. Whereas it used to 
be many more jobs wanting mod_perl vs seekers of jobs.

Is this an odd time of year for many contractors where the contract ends 
around the holiday season? Or is this starting to be a symptom of dotcoms 
going bust and the development market starting to level out?

Or perhaps I am being a bit paranoid. :)
