I agree with a bit more openness. A lot of GNU/Linux nerds make their living
off something without "Linux" as the dominant keyword or responsibility. I
think the list can stay "on-topic" while allowing job postings for many/all
F/L/OSS operating systems and common apps, tools, languages, et al.

That said, if a job posting for a DB2 admin on AIX comes through, there will
be blood. :)
