Re: [NOVICE] jobs mailling list: pgsql-jobs@postgresql.org

Hi,

OK .. sounds like a web site is part of the solution.

How 'bout something like ...
a) 1 page to list all jobs ( probably just a few )
b) 1 page to list all programers looking for available ( includes a
small resume )
b) 1 page to add jobs
c) 1 page to add programers
d) 1 .xml file to store jobs and programers
e) 1 .xsd ( xml schema ) file
e) 1 .rss file to store jobs and programers for folks to add to their
site(s)

Again these are just ideas/suggestions.
Your opinion ?

Cheers
Rudi.
