Ok, thank you all for voting, and thank you for your patience during
the flood of emails.  Here are the results:

Admin List:
  Yes:
    spmcinerney at hotmail.com
  No:
    carroll at tjc.com
    ds-bp at sidorof.com
    harrington_chad at hotmail.com
    tungwaiyip at yahoo.com
    wescpy at gmail.com

Jobs List:
  Yes:
    harrington_chad at hotmail.com
    spmcinerney at hotmail.com (to avoid clogging the main list)
  No:
    carroll at tjc.com
    ds-bp at sidorof.com
    tungwaiyip at yahoo.com
    wescpy at gmail.com

I think this constitutes clear consensus:  we will *not* have separate
jobs and admin lists.

Previously, we decided that we liked the idea of a moderated announce
list, as long as baypiggies at python.org also gets all the
announcements.

It is likely that we will adopt the use of an email prefix such as
"[jobs]" for job postings.  I may state this more formally later.

As list moderator, I'd like to close this discussion for a period of
at least two years.

Best Regards,
-jj
