It is, at best, misdirected. There is a Python job board [1] where
these sorts of things can be posted, but the main mailing list isn't
the place for it.

However, if you want your posts to be seen as legitimate, I would
recommend putting a little more content into them, and putting some
effort into the quality of English. Most of us will just skip over
something that looks like unsolicited commercial email, if we even see
it at all (spam filtering is getting pretty effective these days).

And don't post them via Google Groups. Chris's reply is the first
post in this thread that many of us saw. ;)

thanks Chris, i am checking the link
i wrote just 2 words with a clear indicative title: "Python, Finance" which summarizes the following "if you are good in python and interested in applying your python knowledge to the field of finance then we may have a common interest in talking together" :D
that s it!

No, you didn't. The title wasn't capitalised. The advertisement was
similarly poor English, the post was to the wrong mailing list and you
posted usong G**gle G****s.

Would any competent developer be interested? I think not.

Trouble is, you run into the same problem seen here:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/unix-koans/gui-programmer.html

"Python finance" could also be interpreted in many other ways,
including "I want to write a finance application in Python", and "How
does the PSF get its money?".

The other trouble that you're running into is Google Groups. I
recommend you stop using it, because it makes a mess of your posts.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
