Sounds good to me.  When it's up, the jobs page is the third most
popular techdocs page people visit.  The hardest part I've found is
knowing when jobs have been filled, because people routinely "forget" to
say when.

An attitude I've found dissapointing is the weird belief a number of
agencies have that there must be "some kind of catch" to putting their
PostgreSQL related jobs online for free.  No charge, no banner
advertising, etc.  You'd think they'd never heard of "Community Spirit".

A lot of the stuff I do on the techdocs site is "lets see if this works
and is beneficial".  The jobs section was and is, and so I'm happy for
it to become something more, main site, sub-domain, whatever.

Regards and best wishes,
