Quoting Jesse Zbikowski (embeddedlinuxguy@gmail.com):
Maybe we could also direct job posters to the sf-lug info page http://linuxmafia.com/mailman/listinfo/sf-lug
Let's talk about that.
It might be doing no favour to SF-LUG, since a recruiter who ignores BALUG's terse bold-text guideline is unlikely to heed SF-LUG's less prominent and more verbose one to send jobs postings to jim@well.com .
More to the point, IMO, your suggestion is mostly redundant to what we already do. Why do I say that? Because the hyperlink from balug-talk's listinfo page (http://lists.balug.org/listinfo.cgi/balug-talk-balug.org) to 'SVLUG Jobs' is to a page with a _comprehensive_ list of places to send Linux jobs postings in the Bay Area, and item #6 of 13 on that list is 'SF-LUG [link] accepts jobs postings via the listadmin'.
I am intimately familiar with that page and its contents (http://lists.svlug.org/lists/listinfo/jobs), because I maintain it.
Frankly, I think that SF-LUG link, with a reminder that SF-LUG accepts jobs postings _via the listadmin_, is inherently to be preferred to sending people directly to the SF-LUG listinfo page, which is a bit less clear and invites more of these 'I apologise in advance if I made a mistake' dances.
This seems like the most appropriate place for San Francisco-based Linux developer jobs, since SVLUG is for the valley and BayLisa is for sysadmins.
Well, as a data point, I might point out that the Cisco guy was advertising a _San Jose_ software engineering job, and that this is, in my experience, pretty typical of the recruiters who come charging in and ignoring BALUG's mailing list rules.
