I think this is fine.  It had a "[JOB]" tag in the subject, an English  
introductory paragraph, and finally a job description.  I presume that  
to be an acceptable candidate for the job, you need to know German (at  
least read it?) and anyone who can't wouldn't be wanted.  Since I  
might be tempted to read the whole thing if it were in English, I'm  
actually saved some time by the German.

While the group tends to prefer English-only discussions, it is  
certainly a global group.
