Eh, that's an attitude I've run into a lot over here - honestly, I think Europeans (heck, maybe the whole rest of the world, I dunno) are more sensitive about the "private information" in their CVs than we Americans are. This way, he picks up people who are only mildly interested (such as myself) who wouldn't take the time to write him just yet, but might have a need in the future. I'm much more likely to remember him now that I've seen his work history. And contact information (if that's what you were worried about) is pretty easy to glean regardless these days....

And please leave the inevitable comments about "americans don't have privacy under Bush anyway" out.

Anyway, back on topic - I'll keep an eye out. I don't know of any positions at the moment, but having played this game not too long ago, I'm a bit more keen to help my fellow Americans. You said you know the job boards, but have you used Xing much? (google it if not) That's becoming a more and more popular way of finding recruits these days.
