No comment <grrrr>.

OK, one comment:  the fellow who updates that page *can* do so again, but is
on vacation this week.  Send your job description to jobs at python.org anyway
and it will show up "eventually".  Our apologies!

That's always been welcome here, and considering the state of python.org the
past couple of months, if anybody flames you for it I'll personally eat
their liver (well, with some fava beans and a fine Chianti, of course).

Oh, come on.  Times may be hard, but that's no reason to kill yourself
<wink>.
