In yet another sign of its seriousness when it comes to open source, Sun Microsystems has hired Ian Murdock to be its first Chief Operating Platforms Officer. Murdock made the announcement on his personal blog.
Murdock is the founder of the Debian Linux distribution. He first wrote the Debian Manifesto in 1993 while in college, naming his Linux distribution after himself and his then-girlfriend, now-wife, Debra.
