I don think it was an "incorrect post" in anyway.
People are free to post here to GIMP development subject, and the probability
of finding someone proeficient with GIMP code interested in doing
whatever he needs here
is much higher than in a generic freelancer site.

Moreover, it can give opportunity for someone involved in GIMP as a
volunteer to
get paid, if not to implement improvements directly in GIMP, at least to get
more aquaintted with different places of the code base.
If a subscriber of this list pick the job, I think the chances of him
contributing back to the project or getting involved are far greater
than someone that would accept the offer in a freelancer site.

Therefore, I think posting here is far better for him and for the
project alike.
