Those of us looking for jobs in the area of networking --
particularly recent Ph.D. students -- probably appreciate
seeing a few "seeking people" advertisements in
the flood of "desperately seeking papers" notices.
Possible solutions would be to tolerate such job
advertisements on the TCCC list -- afterall these don't
seem to be frequent enough to be particularly painful
yet -- or to promote a separate list for jobs (or
jobs-for-Ph.D.s) postings, similar to jobs@cra.
As I see it, ComSoc's role should be to help its
membership -- if, in the process, it happens to aid
commercial interests, that is not necessarily
a bad thing. In any event, ComSoc doesn't
seem to put any resources behind this list
as such, other than the voluntary efforts of
the community, so perhaps ComSoc policies
could be viewed as "good practices" as opposed
to the law of the land.
Regards.
