[FX.php List] PHP/LAMP Career Opportunities @ Yahoo!

[Chris Hansen]

Folks, my apologies that this got through.  Although FX.php job  
opportunities are definitely appropriate in this forum (and even  
straight FileMaker job opportunities are OK), general posts like this  
are obviously out-of-line.  From what I can tell, this person joined  
the list just to post this (the request came in just a couple of days  
ago.)  Of course, this may just be a disgruntled employee who's  
trying to give Yahoo! a bad name, but otherwise I would have thought  
that an internet company would know better.  Again, sorry for the  
hassle.
