FYI, I was told this needs to be posted in
pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org simply because
the jobs mailing list does not let you reply keeping the mailing list
in loop. I expect a answer from
experts on this. I find this particular job ad to be very offensive in
terms of an expectancy from
any person looking for job.

Though I will not say these are skills that you look for a DBA. But
the list of want to have's are far too
many. I would like to know your justification for these. Please
remember when you look for candidates
there should be fair deal of integrity and clarity to what you want to achieve.
