I saw this trick recently for a job advertised locally to me, in Melbourne. I was initially pretty excited that someone in this city was actually advertising for Haskell programmers, until I realised they needed to be good at Javascript and Perl so they could work on their web apps. Argh, I didn't bother applying. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
