I think I'm -1 on making a subsite. I like URL stability, so even if
the content maintenance of the jobs site works independent from the
rest, it should continue to be provided at its current URL.
I've always found it surprising that jobs.python.org doesn't exist.
I'd imagine about three 301 redirects would take care of existing urls...
I'd personally wait and see what the outcome of the redesign is. Perhaps
you might even like the new site. But if not, it should be easy enough
to take the jobs list out of the management even after the fact.
Indeed, the job board has been something I've been thinking about a lot
for the last couple of years. I even started a project to handle it:
https://github.com/cjw296/jobs.python.org
...before my working situation changed and doing the moderation offline
turned out to be a requirement.
That said, I think any contractor would have to know about the needs of
this particular application. It might be useful to ask bidders for a
separate quote on the job board, and then decide that the risk of wasting
that money (in case we don't use the new system for the jobs) is too high.
I think it'd make the RFP simpler and cheaper to split it off before.
I'm offering to do that work ;-)
