The above is, IMO, a model for how job postings to the PLUG lists should
look.

- Subject line, though not prefaced with "OT" is obvious as to the contents.
- Enough information to understand the main requirements.
- Clear instructions on where to go for more information.
- A courteous "good luck."
- A request that further discussion occur off the list.
- Relatively brief.

Thanks, Micah.
