Neowin.net reports that Open Source programmer Jim Hugunin, has been “acquired” by Microsoft. It is reported that MS has asked for his services to assist with Microsoft’s support for dynamic languages.
Hugunin made it clear however, that he intends to continue his work on IronPython and remain loyal to the Open Source community in general. Much like Deren Smith who wrote up the post alerting me to this event, I too, am surprised to see Jim Hugunin make the jump over to the MS camp. I guess anything possible if you wave enough money at someone.
