Thread: jobs.postgresql.org
Hi All, I'm attempting to polish off the last of the cleanups for the servers here at hub and jobs.postgresql.org is one of the remaining VM's that needs to be either upgraded or merged with an existing VM that has already been upgraded. The upgraded VM's are currently he svr*.postgresql.org VM's. Who's currently maintaining the site? Is it being maintained? How long would it take to merge into the www.postgresql.org VM? Please let me know on the above so I can work on clearing off that VM when your ready for it.. -- Chris Bowlby <excalibur@hub.org>
Hey Chris, I think the only thing left up there is techdocs. I was going
to move it to the new VM but we never got zope working so it got pushed
back, and then Josh had said he was going to convert the site to
bricolage *any day now*, so i figured he could go ahead and do that. if
it is dragging you down i can try to finish turning everything into html
docs and moving it to the new vm (some could surely be incorporated into
the main site), but i have been really swamped as of late so hate to do
the work if it is going to be replaced with bric any time soon.
unfortunatly josh is out of town i think till next tuesday so not sure
what his status is on the bricolage transfer. actually i still owe marc
a look at some of those databases :-( unless they've been deleted
already...

Hi Chris, I thought I saw an email from Robert saying that Techdocs is still running on it, and that work was underway to move it in one form or another to the www VM.

We have a bricolage test site set up, but haven't done much with it because of my absence and Elein is busy. Soon, really. We just want to build a large portion of Techdocs on the test server before trying to port the real site. A caution: we found that Bricolage is *very* difficult to install and may take several attempts and/or the direct involvement of David Wheeler to get it built on a BSD VM. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
It's rumoured that Josh Berkus once said: > A caution: we found that Bricolage is *very* difficult to install and > may take several attempts and/or the direct involvement of David > Wheeler to get it built on a BSD VM. That doesn't surprise me - Justin tried it once and couldn't get it to work. It would be nice to use Bricolage however, and hopefully David will be willing to help if there are problems. Regards, Dave.
Speaking of Jobs.PostgreSQL.ORG: Several people, over the last year, have offered to code something for jobs.postgresql.org, but nothing has come of it. I had an interesting idea. I know Craig Newmar personally; would people be interested in setting up jobs.postgresql.org as some sort of collaboration with craigslist.org? This might spare us the challenge of setting up the technology, while allowing us to charge a token payment for listings. -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

I'm not against it, though I really wonder if folks would actually pay to
The "somethings better than nothing" fix:
* add pgsql-jobs to mailing lists web page
* add pgsql-jobs to archives
* remove bad information on techdocs jobs page, pointing folks to the mailing
list pages, reminding them to search for postgre, postgres,postgresql,pgsql
when searching job sites.
* put up announcement on main web page
* put notice in weekly news

Robert, > I'm not against it, though I really wonder if folks would actually pay to Sure, why not? Craigslist.org is entirely funded by job listings. Also charging some kind of fee screens out the vapor and most of the agency-recruiters-in-sheeps-clothing. > > The "somethings better than nothing" fix: > > * add pgsql-jobs to mailing lists web page > * add pgsql-jobs to archives > * remove bad information on techdocs jobs page, pointing folks to the mailing > list pages, reminding them to search for postgre, postgres,postgresql,pgsql > when searching job sites. > * put up announcement on main web page > * put notice in weekly news Sure, that sounds great as something we can do right now. -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

I have been out of involvement with the jobs site for a long time. According to the last messages I saw there was some discussion about moving to a system developed by a company (sounded like a jobs site). Did this ever come to pass? I have two projects I am working on with a consultant. I should have time by late december. This consultant has a framework we have been using and he is very quick. I am going to ask him if he would be willing to let outsiders see his framework. If the answer is yes I would be willing to pay him to do an initial site and then we can have volunteers help with the upkeep. For the most part I think between him and me we could do all the work, but we will need someone to help with the graphic design. Would this approach be of interest?

My PHP guru has done HR apps in the past, and may be willing to throw something up in exchange for publicity (i.e. "jobs.postgresql.org designed by Ascher Consulting"). So please keep in touch; I figure whichever of us gets around to this first should do it. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco

I really don't think I can work on this till mid to late december so if you can take a jump start or do it go for it. Last time I think part of the problem was too many ideas. If I was to take this project I would do a design specification. Show it on this list get feedback and then get it done. Different people want different things out of the jobs site and trying to please everyone is difficult at best.

That's why my company may "just do it"; we'll recycle existing code to make something that won't please everybody but will work. Sometimes getting something done is more important that getting it exactly right. Add this to the mix: There is a private company which may be offering a service which will eliminate our need to do this at all. Can't say more, but if all of us end up procrastinating until March, it may become a moot point. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco
