+More Linux Developers Joining Microsoft, Systemd Creator Adds to the List
+======
+It looks like Microsoft is holding all the good cards to play for its industry success with Linux and open-source.
+
+![microsoft][1]
+
+Microsoft always gets the attention for some reason when it comes to open-source and Linux.
+
+And, it also comes to the limelight when we talk about Linux developers…why?
+
+It seems that Microsoft is hiring a lot of Linux developers for a range of projects. And, a popular name has joined the list.
+
+Systemd and PulseAudio creator, **Lennart Poettering**, is now working with Microsoft while continuing his focus on systemd development, as reported by [Phoronix][2].
+
+In case you are curious, Lennart used to work for Red Hat leading the PulseAudio project and a few other things.
+
+In addition to Lennart, some key developers like Python creator **Guido Van Rossum** have also joined Microsoft in the past.
+
+### Microsoft Gearing Up for The Best
+
+It is no surprise that Microsoft wants to improve its focus on open-source-based projects and utilize Linux as efficiently as possible for its businesses.
+
+The Azure platform makes the most use of it, and not to forget the **Windows Subsystem for Linux**.
+
+Hence, Microsoft is constantly hiring Linux developers. You will find plenty of Linux-related positions at [Microsoft Careers][3] if you want to try your skills.
+
+While this is a big deal for Microsoft’s line of offering, it should not affect Linux desktop users in general. In fact, I think, the more resources Linux developers get, as a result of their switch in job roles, they could help the Linux ecosystem better enhance their vision.
+
+Of course, it is not ideal to have all key Linux developers work on Microsoft-owned projects. But, it is what it is.
+
+### Microsoft is Doing Something Right
+
+It is not just about the financial reward, but the trend of Linux developers joining the team at Microsoft means that they have been successful at some of their efforts on open-source and Linux.
+
+As long as Microsoft makes an effort to improve the Linux ecosystem, I do not think we have much to worry about it.
+
+I would not like to be reminded of “Embrace, extend, and extinguish”. After all, it’s all business for all the companies. No one should be considered a hero when it involves money-making decisions.
+
+So, we can only hope that Microsoft is gearing up for something good in store for Linux developers and users in the near future.
+
+What do you think about it? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.
