This is a reasonable request in general, as we don't want to cause people distress or harm an individual's reputation. In this case, however, it is also a matter of historical record: as part of their taking control of Sun 5 months ago, Oracle intentionally laid off many of the people who were in Senior Solaris and OpenSolaris Engineering/Management positions; they also reassigned many other active community members to non-OpenSolaris jobs. In my mind, RIFs and job reassignments certainly equate to being "sent away". > suffice it to say that Oracle is not actively "sending away" senior Solaris > engineers. It also may be true that things have changed and Oracle is *now* trying to retain and/or grow their Solaris engineering ranks. Time will tell... -John _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
