Here is one for a Linux advocate ... I am sure they can find plenty of people that would love doing that job.

Pity they jumped into bed with Microsoft though .. really turns me off the thought of a Delphi for Linux, remembering what the bastardisation that MS J++ was to Java.

Delphi == Very popular on Windows Plattforms. Many Win Apps are made with Delphi.
Delphi on other OSes == Microcrap does earn nothing with this.

Which toolkit are they using, or are they creating a new toolkit?

I don't think we have to work all that fast if you happened to read carefully what the job title is.

"Senior R&D Engineer"

If it was something they were really gung-ho on would it be an R&D job?

It's one of those snowballing rumor type things I guess. Yesterday a friend of mine who does mostly VB said to me, "Hey you know Microsoft just bought Borland, don't you?" So I had to spend 5 minutes explaining the 10% investment and the technology cross-licencing and so forth.

I wonder if that job announcement is legit, or a hack ;^)

Jeff.

Yes...the original Delphi development team was "R&D" for over a year before Delphi 1.0 shipped.

The "&D" stands for Development, after all!!!
