Roller goes Professional!
OK, so Roller hasn't gone professional, but Dave will be getting paid to work on it.
It's official.
Roller is now my full time job. I just accepted a job with Sun Microsystems to "design, develop, and deploy the
primary blogging system for Sun in
conjunction with other engineers" and to evangelize blogging both
inside and outside of Sun. Needless to say, I'm thrilled.
...
What does this mean to Roller? Only good things. Sun wants many
of the same things for Roller that other Roller users want including
high performance, high availability, great user interface, support for
standards, and better support for large communities of bloggers. Thanks
to Sun I'll be working full time to help make these things happen.
Congratulations Dave! You're living the open-source developer's dream.
