I am also concerned about for-profit use of net resources.  I sent mail to
sue@sol1 to get her reaction and had meant to bring it up before now, but
got carried away with work.  The essence of her response is that it is a
kind of public service to advertise jobs, and that it is no one elses concern
what the relationship is between her and her clients as long as she doesn't
charge the people who are hired.  The problem is that it may open the 
floodgates of commercial advertising.  The frequency of these posts may be
an indication of the potential for abuse by other headhunters.  Perhaps the
thing to do is to suggest that she establish a mailing list for job hunters,
and post a request for interested readers every 3 or 4 months.
