I have mentioned this is the past so I will mention it again for consistency but we have generally agreed in the past not to use the mailing lists for soliciting. The GeoServer blog is the appropriate medium and in all honestly a much more effective one for stuff like this.
That said I am excited to see CSIRO putting more resources into GeoServer! Great news.

Sorry, I mentioned that these jobs were coming up a few weeks ago and promised to tell the list, and did not get any negative feedback. I will in future refrain from soliciting on the list.
The GeoServer blog is the appropriate
medium and in all honestly a much more effective one for stuff like this.
OK.
That said I am excited to see CSIRO putting more resources into
GeoServer! Great news.
Thanks, we hope we can get more done with the new resources.

Oh... my apologies if the policy has changed. I must have missed it.

No, I don't think so. Nobody else does it. I can't find a policy against it, but sometimes these matters are best enforced by occasionally reprimanding those who break unwritten convention. It might be an idea to indicate the preferred location for job ads on the mailing list page.
The main reason this list will be ineffective for GeoServer ads is that most of the participants already *have* a job working on GeoServer. I'd ask developers to pass on the ads to their friends, but then I'd be soliciting again, right?

It has happened already. Oh, the joy.

My point exactly. The blog will hit your target audience better imp since as you put it so nicely, you don't have to sell geoserver to the people on this list
