Possible job fix (was: So sorry if I offended anyone)

Two ideas...
A. Get with the PLUG web maintainer about a link to a site where you put
up only Linux/Unix/BSD jobs. And maybe let everyone know in a quick
e-mail that the page has been updated. It keeps the messages small and
easily downloaded. You can even decide on a standard subject line for
others to filter out.
B. If A isn't do-able: Same page(s), but put the job title and a link
to that jobs page in the e-mail. Maybe a single page for a given day's
openings so you only have to post a single link. Keep the standard
subject line idea for filtering purposes.
Most importantly, if it's being announced via PLUG, they should be
Phoenix area jobs. (Some guy tried recruiting me to go work in
Maryland. Thankfully not via PLUG.)
