[Baypiggies] Baypiggies Digest, Vol 46, Issue 8

Sat Aug 8 20:30:20 CEST 2009

JJ,
Why don't we just have a baypiggies-jobs list?  Job seekers can subscribe,
uninterested parties can enjoy the normal python discussions on the
baypiggies list.  It is suboptimal to mix content on this list.  Is it
terribly hard to set up a baypiggies-jobs list?

Thanks for your excellent service,

Chad Harrington
