Must admit I agree with most of this in theory.  However, it strikes me
as grossly inefficient to post a resume on the list.  It only exists for
a small time and is of interest to those members who need someone that
day or in the foreseeable future.  Who is willing to slog through the
Museum-L archives for a resume you thought you may have seen a week or
two ago?  Couldn't there be a better place to file museum professionals
resume's on the internet or is there already such a beast?

Just a thought
