Pat,

I would argue that the Silicon beach mailing list is more for people looking 
for business minded co-founders, and as such most posts to this list in this 
regard are business founders looking for tech co-founders. Given the current 
state of the market for such talent they should follow the guideline of: "The 
developer you're after is like that really hot blonde on the other side of the 
bar, she's got everyone else giving her attention, so your idea better be 
pretty compelling if you stand any chance."

At least this is what I have found whilst finding a co-founder for TestPilot.
