[web-team] Job corner??

[William R Ward]

I think the website needs updating.  It talks of a "job corner" after
the meetings.  In my experience, after the meetings there's a lot of
milling about and general hubbub, but otherwise nothing I'd call a
"job corner".  I suspect this is a tradition that has disappeared.

With the economy the way it is, perhaps it would be a good idea to
provide an opportunity for job seekers and offerers to get in contact
with each other.  The website alludes to an old system where jobs
could be announced at the beginning of the meeting; perhaps something
like that would not be a bad idea.  Or, do it the way Bay LISA does,
and have a whiteboard (or equivalent) where people can write their
names & contact info and what they do or want.

AMAZING BUT TRUE: There is so much sand in northern Africa that if it were
                  spread out it would completely cover the Sahara Desert!
