Guidelines for MIDRANGE-JOBS mailing list -- MIDRANGE-JOBS

Monthly posting of the guidelines for participation in the Midrange
Jobs Mailing List.

Keep to the subject.  The topic of the list is Midrange Jobs.  Midrange
systems include the AS/400, S/38, S/36, and S/34.  Posting Job openings,
resumes, etc, are all fine.  Technical discussions should be taken to
MIDRANGE-L, RPG400-L, or JAVA400-L.  Application discussion should be
taken to the appropriate list (if hosted by MIDRANGE dot COM) or some
other appropriate area.

This is NOT a forum for consultants to find clients (or clients to 
find contractors).  If someone is caught soliciting such contracts,
they will be banned from all lists hosted by MIDRANGE dot COM without
possibility for parole.  We define employment as having a W2 (or whatever
the local equivalent tax form is), benefits, and is intended to be
relatively permament.  In addition, the forum is not for computer
users to find contractors or consultants.  Requests For Quotation
or Proposals (RFQ or RQP) are *NOT* appropriate.

When posting resumes and job openings, do not send them as word processor 
files... not everyone will be able to process such files.  Use plain
text instead.

MIDRANGE dot COM is *NOT* a recruiting firm ... this mailing list is
being offered as a public service only.  We do not require or expect
any compensation for positions filled through this list (well, if you
do get a job through this list... you an buy me lunch next time we're
both at COMMON :).

When quoting messages, do not quote the entire message.  Just quote the
parts that are needed to make the appropriate references.

Please do not use HTML to format messages ... not everyone has a HTML
enabled message reader and the extra text can (and does) cause some
mail readers to truncate messages.

Flames are absolutely prohibited.  If you disagree with someone, feel
free to argue the facts, but no personal attacks will be tolerated.

The official language of this list is English.

Do not post personal messages.  Please use direct E-Mail.  This list is
international in scope and personal messages just end up costing money.

Collecting or "Mining" of email address from this forum, or any related
web archive, is strictly and explicitly prohibited (not to mention that
it is extraordinarily unprofessional).

By posting to this mailing list, you are granting MIDRANGE dot COM and
David Gibbs (david@xxxxxxxxxxxx) non-exclusive, unlimited, rights to 
republish its contents.

This list IS copyrighted as a compilation.  Republication of this mailing 
list, for anything other than personal use, without the explicit permission

Violation of the above guidelines will be determined by the moderator
and will result either a) The offending party will be forced to make
major modifications to a 10 year old, matching records, RPG II program
that uses every available indicator or b) permanent disconnection from
the conference (you decide which is worse).
