Thread: where to find postgresql jobs in the Washington, DC area??
I apologize if this discussion area is not intended for such a question. The title suggests that it applies, although noone else has done it. Where would I look to find contracting requirements in the Washington, DC area, including northern Virginia and Montgomery County, Maryland, for someone wanting to do database design, creating database for PostgreSQL and developing database interfaces using Tcl/Tk? Also programming general-purpose tasks on Tcl/Tk/incrTcl. thanks, Julian Burke J. Burke Burke Dunwell Corporation P.O.

Maybe this post by Julian will lead to `legalization' of job-related postings on -general? Being always interested in telecommuting opportunities, I'd appreciate such possibility, hopefully the others will agree? -- contaminated fish and microchips huge supertankers on Arabian trips oily propaganda from the leaders' lips all about the future there's people over here, people over there everybody's looking for a little more air crossing all the borders just to take their share planning for the future Rainbow, Difficult to Cure

Personally, I'd rather it didn't.
I have no objection to creation of a pgsql-jobs mail list, if there's
interest --- but let's not clutter the general list with such traffic.

But is it worth creating a new list? Maybe we could use -announce for the first time? On the other hand, I can receive such messages on my personal email and keep them in a database. I'm on dial-up, so there won't be online access, but it seems possible to accept requests via email and handle them in batch mode. Comments?

I'd be interested in pgsql-jobs, and I'd have no problems with subscribing to another list.

I totally agree that putting job postings here would be undesirable. Well, at least for me. I don't want a job, I've got one. However, the addition of a job mailing list by itself would be OK by me. But I wonder how effective it would be. I guess if the list is archived, then that would be a bit better. However, I think that a separate page or set of pages on a Web somewhere site would be better. Of course, such a web page would use PostgreSQL to store the information (job wanted / job opening). I've used PostgreSQL and PHP4 together effectively to make dynamic pages. The problem with this would be administrative. Adding and removing openings, Adding in and removing "position desired". Unless it were to be totally user-driven. I guess that each entry would need to have a validated email address (like the mailing list) and a password. That way it would be more difficult for one person to alter something put in by another person. But there are many such Web sites (I think - http://www.monster.com comes to mind). Well, just my thoughts.
