I see Yahoo being made fun of, and I don't see that being addressed. As long as we encourage or worse, remain silent about corporates being made fun of, we're going to remain a community of hypocrites. Worse, we risk the brand image of Python itself (Note that this mailing list is hosted at python.org), claims to represent Python, and that this community is part of the overall Python community in India and across the globe. > However, that doesn't address the issue of a recruitment person from a > company using the list merely as a hiring resource for a non python job. > We have to then solve a problem to having a common understanding of what's fine and what's not. It appears to me that Anand Pillai was fine with such a post, and you're not, and there's some clarity needed on what's acceptable and what's not, and the rationale for what ever consensus we arrive at. > -- > ~noufal -- Sriram ================== Belenix: www.belenix.org _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
