It's easy to lose count of existing (not former) Microsoft employees inside the Linux Foundation (still funded solely by Microsoft), occupying the Management, Board and now the Technical Advisory Board as well as core technical positions and communication roles
Summary: Techrights politely takes note of the growing role (or roles) of Microsoft employees inside the Linux Foundation; there are now at least half a dozen people
