Hmmm, doesn't look like that to me -- he also posted to the Italian group (correctly in that case, since it.comp.lang.python DOES welcome Python job offers in Italian), got responses offering existing free software to do multigraphs, followed up explaining he knows about those programs but (being a non-programmer with what he thinks is a good idea) still need a contract Python programmer to work on it, etc, etc. Sounds like a person with likely good intentions that's clueless about non-English posts (and apparently job offers) being unwelcome to this newgroup (and about netiquette more generally -- reading groups' charters before posting, etc). About job offers -- I got my current (dream!) job through a long chain of circumstances which DID begin with somebody posting a job offer to this group... so, I can't honestly sympathize with the distaste that some have expressed about seeing (relevant!-) job offers here (yeah, there ARE better venues, admittedly -- but some of us dinosaurs read newsgroups regularly but check out such sites only once in a while, and only when specifically LOOKING for a job, which at the time of that post that eventually got me a job, I definitely wasn't...;-).
