[vote] OpenWrt Job Board

[Adrian Schmutzler]

Hi Paul,

Option C.

Apart from that, I really do prefer having the option to say "no" without having to obey a predefined reason for it. Couldn't there be other reasons to say "no" apart from what you thought of?

Best

Adrian

> * [a]: Yes, a moderated mailing list should be created where job seeking
> developers (and everyone else) can subscribe and companies post job
> offerings. All further contact happens between developer and company. The
> OpenWrt project does not endorse anyone on the list and does not handle
> any part of the communication after posting the offer.
> 
> * [b]: Yes, a moderated list of job seeking developers should be created on
> openwrt.org allowing developers with a TBD qualification, e.g. 20 commits to
> openwrt.git, to shortly describe themselves plus a contact address. The
> OpenWrt project does not endorse anyone on the list beyond the TBD base
> qualification to be on the list. The OpenWrt project is at no point part of the

> * [c]: No, there are sufficient other possibilities to find OpenWrt related jobs

> * [d]: Neutral

> The vote is open for three weeks, March 20, 2021.

> If either [a] or [b] receives a majority of votes, we will evaluate with the SF
