I think Prof. Fritz might be getting the wrong end of the
stick (or rather thinking he should be taking any stick).
The comment from Andrew (based on Michael's comment) was
regarding people posting jobs wanted sections (pleas, CVs,
etc.) rather than advertisements of jobs actually offered.
The dispute seems to arise as to whether the list should be
used for people to ask around for any potential jobs vs.
real job opportunities being advertised. I hope Peter Fritz
stays on.
