OK so as a member of SLUG I have a problem with this. Although I don't
want to see buckets of spam on the SLUG list, I think that Linux jobs
do belong here, regardless of where they come from.
I've posted job ads here (years ago, non-professional, I was looking for
someone to take over a role I had) and that was met with enthusiasm because
at the time there weren't many Linux jobs out there. Nowadays there are
more of them, so have people become a bit more picky about what jobs do and
do not get placed here?

I've seen that, but it's rather out of the mind's eye. If someone needs
a Linux person in a hurry then I can't see what's wrong with a post here.
I'm not saying that the policy is wrong or anything, although I'd like to
see some debate on it at a meeting or here.
Can we perhaps restrict the format ... perhaps make the poster put the
ad onto linux.org.au and then just post a 2 liner with the URL here?
