Hey,
Does anyone know why this website is down / who maintains it? Seems to have been like this for at least half a year..

Thanks, I've had a look at the jobs schema. What I am less sure about is the best approach for how to collect and aggregate the data from different sources. Have you ever worked on something like that?

We're Open Data Services Coop so yes :-) Happy to have a chat sometime

Great! I'll message you about arranging a chat.

We use Drupal and there is a way to use 'feeds' to aggregate info - not
sure outside of that, but you could send a note to ask@agaric.coop where
my partners Chris and Ben may know of what you speak.

Thanks for getting back to me Jason. I'm not really techy at all but have used the site for listings in the past so just wanted to check what was going on. If there is a struggle to get it sorted I like to think it's something that would come under the Solidfund support banner as job visibility is really important for worker co-ops.

Great to hear you found the site valuable Sean. I am going to get a team together to kickstart work on it and will provide an update soon. Applying for support from Solidfund is a very good suggestion.

Thanks for your work on this and good to hear.
> The initial site was based on manual job postings and I have some ideas about how to work on a next version of the site that could populate the jobs through automation.
I'd really love it if we could push that. Having done a lot of job postings, it can be a pain. https://schema.org/JobPosting would be the first thing I'd consider. I'm happy to discuss, but not sure how much time I can dedicate.
