[thelist] OT: Working Abroad

Not sure about NZ, but Australia's IT job market is definitely not great at
the moment, and has been floundering for at least a year.  Currently there
is an over-abundance of web designers and front-end developers and a
shortage of job postings for these areas.  There are a few more offerings
for those with more advanced programming skills, especially if you're a VB
or Delphi pro, but there are still a helluva lot of people looking.
