As an observer to this process over the last two months, I would
like to make an addendum to the "jobs list". I think it would be great
to see a list on the OSGEO site for volunteers to contribute to the
projects. Personally, I would really like to get involved and make a
contribution to the foundation as a developer, but I don't know where
to plug-in. I guess this is also an open call to those who need a
volunteer to contact me directly, but I think it would be most
beneficial to everyone if their was a job board for volunteers to go to
so they could pick out places where their skill set best matches the
need. I think this has been touched on in a couple of different
threads, but it has been superseded (rightly so) by getting the
foundation off the ground.<br>

<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<p><font size="2">I'd like to suggest that, at some point, OSGeo
supports a "jobs list", either by email or on a web page. What I have
in mind is a sort of clearing house for jobs: full-time and
fixed-contract, both "wanted" and "seeking". Specifically, and
obviously, the intent is that this should be used for jobs centered
around our open source efforts. (This might lend credence towards the
bug-bounty idea, which might be controversial, but...)<br>
<br>
I know that some forms of industry consortia frown on this sort of
thing, as it makes companies not want to participate in events and
forums that lead to job-hopping, but I don't think OSGeo should have
that concern.<br>
