is it really that big of problem, or is it that you just have a problem with 
Trolltech in general?

How are you planning to enforce your "advertising" policy (if posting a job is 
advertising)? Are you planning to become a moderated list, then?

I sent that post here, because I thought that some person involved with oe 
might want an interesting job with a fast growing company, sorry if you took 
offense. There is always your delete button.
