My thoughts: I think a jobs area on www.linux.ie, for businesses looking
for linux-skilled people, is an excellent idea. However I think it would
need to be free to be useful, and it's a lot of work on the part of the
webmasters (we have a jobs section www.heanet.ie, it's not trivial to
maintain).
On the other hand, for companies whose core business is recruitment on
behalf of paying clients (i.e. agencies), I think this is advertising
and should be treated as such.
Perhaps one could fund the other? </bluesky>
