Absolutely no light hearted jabs. Total shrink wrapped politeness would
make for a very dull corporate atmosphere. I don't like it myself but if
that is the position of the list, I won't violate it.

Every poster has a first time. A job posting by a first timer for a non
Python job is pretty much spam (for this list) in my opinion but there
needs to be an "official" stance on this as well.
