What you just did is borderline SPAM. While TLUG does occasionally
have job openings posted, these are posted by longtime, trusted
members. And the jobs usually are related to *Japan*, of which Tokyo
is the capital. Hence the "Tokyo" in the name of our group.

While your job is not completely unrelated to what we do (since it
involves Open Source software), it is pretty bad form to just
subscribe to the list and blast out a job offer, without lurking a bit
to see what TLUG is all about, and to see if the flavour of your job
offer is compatible with us.

Tragically, this sort of thing is not yet mentioned explicitly in the
List Policy document (but it is now on my list of things to do), so I
cannot give you any sort of official warning, but know that I am
displeased.

If you are really interested in TLUG, that is great. Welcome to the
list. But if you just dropped by to send your job offer and wait for
responses, you will probably be a bit disappointed.
