Hi Guys, I hope this is the appropriate venue to send this out to. If not, I apologize for the spam; it's the only message I will send out.
We're looking for two web developers at the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism, one who specializes in Django/Python. I've included the job description in this e-mail, and perhaps people can pass it along to anyone they know who might be interested in the San Francisco Bay Area. The description might be a little ambiguous because we were forced to put both positions -- a web master, and a web application developer -- into one description. We can answer any additional questions about the position.
