And a lot of job postings do come from that sort of really small business, trying to expand a bit. Plus, some of them want some anonymity (why, I don't know, but there are plenty of jobs posted without too much in the way of company details), so maybe they do have a domain as well. Anyway, it's a small downside, but nothing compared to the other issues with the post. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
