The jobs posted on this list are all relevant and appropriate to the wide scope of people who read this list. We have not just seasoned programmers, but also recent college graduates and people looking for entry-level jobs in the field, as well as archivists and more. It seems like a mistake to impose additional rules and regulations on what types of jobs are allowed to be posted here...professional organizations looking to spread the word about jobs available in the field may become reticent to share some here if we give the impression that we don't want them. I agree with Kelly, and everyone else who has stated that the number of job postings does not bother me one bit. Whether or not the amount of job postings coming through here is too much or too little seems like a personal preference issue, and one that can be treated with filters on keywords, etc, in one's own email client or RSS feed reader.
