I agree, a community "job jar" would be a wonderful way to get to know our
neighbors while getting some work done! I think we discussed  this idea not
too long ago (here? on the wiki?) One suggestion at that time, I think, was
to add one or more fields to a content infobox that would populate a
category listing. Implementing and maintaining a system like this would
probably need some dedicated volunteers helping in the background, certainly
to get it started.

Maybe we should set up a Community Workgroup to figure out a reasonable
process and get the necessary "tools" in place. (See procedure and policy
for starting a community workgroup at
http://wikieducator.org/Workgroup:WikiEducator_Workgroups/Guidelines ).

Anyone interested in getting this started? The first step is to announce the
idea on this list, get feedback and determine interest -- seems like there's
interest. Next step is to set up a Workgroup page in the Workgroup
"namespace" on WE and then invite volunteers to join.

Looking forward to making those small contributions!
Alison
