Re: Jobs newsgroup
Believe me, there are plenty of jobs out there wanting to be posted to
net.jobs.  People were just afraid to post them because they thought it
might be misuse of the net.  At Berkeley, I see local messages posted
announcing jobs quite frequently (at least one a week).  This is because
employers call Berkeley in the hopes Berkeley will send them a Berkeley
student who is about to graduate.  I suspect many other top universities
are the same way, although Berkeley does have a unique reputation for UNIX.
(Hopefully, Berkeley can be convinced to feed their incoming stream into
net.jobs as well as the local msgs system.)

I may have jumped the gun, however, by creating net.jobs.  Someone suggested
that net.ad.jobs is merely a special case of net.ad.  This should still
be considered a possibility - comments are welcome.
