schestowitz[15:39] <foo_> hiJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:40] <foo_> i saw your post about canonical wrt mono/microsoft and thought i might add something to it, without posting publically about itJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:42] <foo_> around the end of 2008 canonical hired an ex microsoft manager to lead the desktop group, more recently (past 6 months or so) he was made the manager of the entire ubuntu section of the company, i'm not sure if that has any relevance to what you were talking about in the post, but it mightJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:43] <foo_> i haven't been following ubuntu too closely since early august though so I am not sure if he has anything to do with the mono issue you were talking aboutJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:44] <foo_> also i'm not sure if he is the only ex-microsoft employee working for canonical, or just the highest up oneJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:45] <schestowitz> I wrote about himJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:45] <foo_> okJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:45] <schestowitz> And I know he was promoted some months ago, I wrote about itJan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:46] <foo_> oh ok, didn't know about that, been too busy to follow things for the past few months :(Jan 20 15:48
schestowitz[15:46] <schestowitz> Let me find itJan 20 15:48
