I've just had a look onto the job board of my forums and there seem to be plenty of job requests with few or no replies. Granted, some of the jobs posted look a bit - let's say - less professional, but on the other hand there's companies like stickam posting flexible on-site and telecommute positions. But no replies. Did the developers reply directly or nor at all? I'm not sure.
Wowza and Red5 are also in heavy demand, but again with few or no replies. So if you are a developer stuck in an agency building Flash banners then ask yourself what else you could be doing...?
Another good place to promote yourself for free in front of the who's who of FMS is my mailing list, that's in case you are looking for FMS related work. Potential employers are also encouraged to post their jobs there.
We have been working with one company to develop the VideoChat of Mobifriends.
They have done the first phase of the development, but now we have to do the second phase of the development, but they are busy with other issues and they have given to us the sourcecode. We contacted some developers, but they are busy until January, and the project is already delayed and we cannot wait until then.
The second phase should take around two weeks.
We are looking for a professional Flash media server developer with a very good knowledge of Flash, Flash Media Server and Action Script 2, with experience writing multi-user multiple-rooms Videochat applications.
Although now we need to finish the VideoChat, we would carry on improving the service. If we work well, we will have more works to be done in the near future.
If you are available to start now with our project, and you could prepare a close budget and schedule estimation for the second phase, please contact us at jobs DOT fms AT mobifriends DOT com and we will provide you more detailed information."

I've just received this job posting which I think will be of interest to some of you.
Scribd.com, a VC-backed startup in San Francisco, is working on a stealth Flash project that is really, really cool. We're pushing the boundaries of what's possible in Flash, and we're looking for a great hacker to help us launch this ground-breaking product. Must haves are a solid background in general programming with substantial experience in ActionScript programming (we use AS3). C++ experience is a big plus, as is experience with FMS. Creativity and interest in tackling a profoundly challenging problem are essential.
Scribd is a small, rapidly growing startup backed by top-tier venture capitalists (and Paul Graham's Y Combinator) with a beautiful office in downtown San Francisco. Scribd launched in March 2007 and was immediately popular. In just 6 months we've already grown into the world's largest open library of documents. We love to hire people who are passionate, creative, and interested in taking on a lot of responsibility. Email responses to Jared at hackers@scribd.com.
Recognizing that employees are at the core of our success, Adobe recruits and retains highly qualified and motivated individuals, creates an environment where they can innovate and achieve their best, and rewards them for their performance by giving them an opportunity to share in the companies success.

They are trying to fill the position of a Business Development Manager (BDM) that will support their video streaming solutions, primarily focused on the media and entertainment industry. About 75% of the role is to directly support the sales pipeline and Adobe's field sales team calling on this industry with the other 25% taking on an evangelist role with speaking opportunities and other efforts to help drive business in general for this market. Adobe is looking for a rock star that has an in-depth knowledge of streaming solutions and FMS in particular and enough of a sales/BDM background to feel comfortable in a sales and public speaking environment. This person will not carry a sales quota. It's a field BDM role and the position is based in New York.

I've recently done some video work for the guys at CNET UK and this may be the reason they've just sent over this job posting. So if you fancy yourself as a (junior) Multimedia Systems Admin and have a good knowledge of Flash and Flash Video (plus a few other skills) then drop my man Chris an email: chris[dot]beaumont[at]cnet.com I presume that the job location is at CNET UK's offices at International House in Central London, right next door to Tower Bridge.
