question on recruiters and list/group policy

Hi,

I've been "away" at the USITS conference (wow, great papers and
conversations), but I guess everyone who cares has kicked in their
opinion by now and I can just boil down the comments into a policy.

Here goes:

boulder-pm-list is for Perl-related discussion.  General announcements
likely to be of interest to most group members are welcome.  Occasional
job postings closely related to Perl are acceptable.

If abuses begin to occur (and we reserve the right to redefine "abuse"
as consensus dictates), we'll take the necessary steps to stop it.
(Of course, only *really stupid* recruiters would deliberately
provoke/alienate the people they're trying to recruit . . . but you
never know.  There's a lot of strange thinking out there.)

Recruiters are not scalar quantities, and we won't classify them as
such.  If you have a legitimate interest in Perl, you're welcome on
the mailing list and at any of our meetings, regardless of your "day
job".

Any person who meets the above criteria and wants to pick up the
tab at a meeting is welcome to do so.

Walter
