Basically, the guidelines are; Good sluggers can post jobs that they
seeking to fulfill here. Please include a full description and $. We
have seen a few of these this year and they are welcome.
So your example has no problem and is still the case.. If you work
somewhere and they need a linux person, please let sluggers know.
What we don't want is agencies for various reasons like;
we never get the full picture,
not all the jobs really exist,
not many agency personel know what linux is and find it hard to
separate out an NT job that might touch on linux from a real linux,
they are basically making money out of spamming the slug list,
we would get multiple posts for the same position,
we are the Sydney Linux users group and melbourne, darwin, etc jobs
are not welcome,
etc.
