I'm genuinely surprised by this reaction which comes up
even more forcefully on the main Python lists. It seems
like a reasonable use of a (technically and geographically)
focused mailing list. You might not like job agencies, but
there doesn't seem to be anything intrinsically wrong with
them.

Am I missing something? Is some kind of Linux-culture thing
which doesn't spill over...?
