I think there should be more comment than this.
There should be a digest version of the job listings. It should come about
once a week to the regular slug list, to ensure wide viewership without
spamming the list. The reply headers in such a message should not default to
slug@nks...To create the digest, just have the (offenders...ahem ;-) people
wanting to post jobs send to another email address, again, to avoid spamming
the list.
There you go. My $.02...
