[kwlug-disc] Here is another FOSS job posting board

[Mark Steffen]

+1 for OpenText, I know a few people who work there and they are all very
satisfied.  I actually applied there a couple years ago, then they called
me for an interview a year later (I had already found something I was
really happy with in the meantime, very FOSS heavy, so it was a "thanks but
no thanks") - clearly I wasn't high up on the list I guess!
