Ask HN: posted startup jobs at github, 37sigs, and only 6 resumes?

We posted our startup jobs (pretty great jobs I'd say, exciting startup, well paid) in the best places we could think of:

* 37sigs: http://bit.ly/g24KTD

* Stackoverflow: http://bit.ly/gchGuU

* Github: http://bit.ly/dSzOvu

* and our blog of course http://blog.getgush.com/

Only 6 resumes in a week. Half of them worthless. Is this typical? I would have expected quite a few more applications, these job postings are fairly expensive. How have others faired with these job boards? Is there something wrong with/missing in our job posting?
