Dear Javier Diaz, I just learned that Sun rejected the application of Paul Davis for its job opening in San Jose concerning the architecting of SunRay(thin client) apparently for not considering him competent and appropriate.
I'm working in Europe mainly for electronic music studios in the academic field. It is well known here that Paul Davis is one of the principal developers in the open source linux audio community. It seems ironic that one of the motors of linux audio development isn't even considered for a position in a major company, using software which is partly based on his free work. In addition not being able to judge Davis' competence doesn't enhance our trust in the quality of the products Sun develops. Be assured, the news about this decision is spread here in Europe and will have a significant impact on our choice of hardware purchase in the future. Please notify the responsible members of your staff.
