I think the reason people are seeing this article as being a gray area
is because it had some interesting content apart from the employment
solicitation. And that's a fair point - I found that part interesting
too. But the subject line was "OmniTI seeks data management experts;
a new type of DBA." I wouldn't necessarily object to "BTW, we're
looking for a DBA", but this wasn't really by the way. It was the
explicitly stated primary purpose of the post. A footnote at the
bottom would be a different matter, perhaps.
Anyway, I didn't object to the content, but I would have expected it
to go through pgsql-jobs rather than planet.
