Microsoft Shuffles the Longhorn Management Deck | |
|
||
| Time: 19:21 EST/00:21 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Watch | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Chris Jones, one of Microsoft's Windows allstars, is back on the Windows client team. His mission? To get the next version of Windows out the door. As part of its ongoing push to get Longhorn out the door, Microsoft is shuffling its Windows client management deck, according to sources close to the company. In the latest reorg, Joe Peterson, vice president of Windows product development, is being removed from day-to-day Longhorn product responsibilities. He will be replaced by Chris Jones, who has been serving as corporate vice president in the Core Operating Systems Division (COSD), according to sources claiming familiarity with Microsoft's strategy. | ||

News story deja vu.
Unlike shuffling chairs on a ship deck, this is significant. It only serves to confirm what many of the more clear-minded, non-MS-zealots have been saying all along: Longhorn is a mess. The staggered removal of what were originally key features, slipping release dates, and now the replacement of the ship's captain while in a storm... nice. Best quote from the story: "Chris Jones…was brought back from COSD to save the (Longhorn) product," said one source. |
