Hey Brent!

Converted the proprietary format job description attachment to a publicly
distributable form with google docs and am sending it CC here to our
employment list: <ALE-Jobs at ale.org>.

The list moderator should pass it on from there since it has Unix / Linux
/ FLOSS relevance.

in peace
aaron
