Subject: [JOB] Red Hat Perl/mod_perl Web Engineering positions


Hey guys, I'm not sure what the job posting policies on the area's
perlmonger lists are, so I figured I'd send the announcement to you
both, in hopes that you can send them on to your respective perlmonger
mailing lists (or okay it for me to), and to anyone else in the area
who you know that may be qualified.

Much appreciated,
Chip Turner <cturner at redhat.com>
