[sf-lug] Fwd: Re: +1 sf-lug policies -- please vote

A) sure
B) done (forwarded) ;-)

Other "random" suggestions, can tweak wording on policy - most notably
"must" vs. "should".  Like RFCs - at least typically - "must" is
mandatory, "should" is (approximately) strongly recommended, but not
necessarily an absolute requirement.  Perhaps the existing policy
already has the wiggle room, as it's mostly all "should" and no "must"
(other than implied must not with "No direct Job Postings" and the
like).

Also, perhaps like BAD (http://bad.debian.net/ and specifically
http://bad.debian.net/shotgun_rules.txt) might be useful to use a
particular key string in the subject of Job postings when they are
approved and forwarded to the list - most notably so that those that
don't/do want to see/note them can filter/alert on the string in the
subject.
