Microsoft hires Director of Linux Interoperability

AlexGr writes: "From Todd Bishop (SeattlePI.com): Microsoft has brought someone aboard to serve as its "Director of Linux Interoperability" and head up the Microsoft/Novell Interoperability Lab — and his name will be familiar to people in the open-source community. In an e-mail late Thursday night, a Microsoft representative said the role will be filled by Tom Hanrahan, who was most recently the director of engineering at the Linux Foundation, the group created through the recent combination of the Free Standards Group and the Open Source Development Labs. http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/archi ves/116377.asp"
