How is this going to work with the job board?

I'm ambivalent about this.

I'm largely sure that I think the job board should split off into its 
own microsite at jobs.python.org. How do we go about making that happen?

Other than that, the ambivalence centers around the RFP. On the one 
hand, it'd be great to have a new system that supports both offline 
processing and online submission of jobs built by someone else...

...on the other hand, it'd be a nightmare if such a system didn't quite 
work, had to be maintained by the bidder, etc.

My gut feel at the moment is that it'll likely be easier all round to 
split the job board off into its own application and take it out of the 
scope of the RFP. This could initially be an ultra stripped down version 
of the current system featuring just the one page...

Thoughts?

cheers,

Chris
