job listings for specific positions that involve mod_perl have traditionally been very welcome here - provided the message is for a real position by someone willing to hire (as opposed to some random headhunter fishing for random souls) it is very much on-topic for this list, as are follow ups that might clarify the position and/or company for people considering it. digressions into ideologies or other things completely unrelated to mod_perl have traditionally been discouraged here, as we like to keep a high signal-to-noise ratio so that the list is continually of value to those doing mod_perl related things. as such, over the course of the years this list has essentially played out like this: o mod_perl questions - signal o mod_perl jobs - signal o straight apache or perl related questions - mostly noise, but we tend to be tolerant as mod_perl is a bridge between both communities o theories on telecommuting - noise so, with no hard feelings, let's keep the noise down, ok? --Geoff
