My post at http://use.perl.org/~brian_d_foy/journal/32142 just counts
posts per month (possibly filtering out messages that don't look like a
job post). I don't do anything to try to figure out duplicates.

As Dave says, neither set of numbers support anything terribly useful.
I just like the idea of a Perl community that takes care of its own by
providing a way for employers and employees to connect. :)
