I actually like where you're trying to go with this, gnp. An automagick job board might not be a great idea for the mud, but what about something a little lower tech, like a mail system? Although ultimately it would need to have code to back it up, I'd be willing to bet that if someone were to try to organize some kind of postal service in-game, they'd get the support from the Imms once they'd proven the idea and gotten some RP groundwork laid.

I'm totally guessing, of course, but there is clearly a real need for something along these lines in the game. It could also make someone very rich, just as long as they had the patience to set up kip somewhere and stay online a lot. I mean, "a LOT"... Then again, a group of even two or three people would be able to... hmm... Uh, forget all that. This isn't the quest you're looking for. *,wiggles his fingers at you mystically.
