I have had a couple requests from people looking for work in the Ada
arena, both long and short term, full, and part time to post something
to info-ada (therefore to net.lang.ada). I'd like to query the
readership on what they think would be appropriate use here. (One
person posted a request to net.wanted.jobs, but indicated abysmal
response). One other possibility that I have considered is to have a
list of those folks who are interested in work in Ada, and a list of
those folks who have such work, and act in some sense as a
clearinghouse for those sets of people (volunteers to help with
maintenance welcome; flames to /dev/null, or its equivalent on your
system!). Please send me your ideas, thoughts, (donations?), etc.
Now is your chance to speak!

As I'm sure you have already heard, hopefully from the moderator, job wanted ads and job available ads are inappropriate for posting to the ARPA distribution list. (Technically, I believe they are forbidden in all cases, i.e., that's not what the ARPA net is for.) However, perhaps if you serve as a private clearinghouse for the info, i.e. it goes only to you and you redistribute as appropriate only to those directly concerned, you may get away with it. I don't know if I would risk loosing my ARPA priveledges by taking the chance, though. Chery
