Could we use the harcker's guide as that single link?. We could move the
Roadmap(Timeline) to such section.

I understand now!.

I understand.

Agreed.  Could you add a Savannah task to move the e-Vote section to
the FAQ?

                    /register?as=person
                    /register?as=company
                    /register?as=nonprofit

What do you think, "type" or "as"?

OK, so we will use what you have proposed:

          "/candidates?action=edit&job_id=XXX"

Let's view all at one again:


  gnuherds.org/GNU_Herds_Hackers_Guide.php
              /development

  gnuherds.org/FS_Business_Networks.php
              /business_network_models

  gnuherds.org/Lost_Password.php
              /password

  gnuherds.org/Person.php, etc.
              as exposed above

  gnuherds.org/View_Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId=XXX
              /jobs?id=XXX

  gnuherds.org/Qualifications.php
              /resume

  gnuherds.org/Manage_Job_Offers.php
              /jobs?owner=me"

              /offers     * Maybe that is better?

  gnuherds.org/View_Job_Applications_State.php
              /jobs?applied=yes

              /positions  * ???

  gnuherds.org/Job_Offer.php?JobOfferId=XXX
              /jobs?action=edit&id=XXX

  gnuherds.org/Manage_Job_Offer_Applications.php?JobOfferId=XXX
              /candidates?action=edit&job_id=XXX

  gnuherds.org/View_Qualifications.php?EntityId=XXX
              /resume?id=XXX
