Re: PHP on .NET DLR

Normally, when a company hires a developer working on a project, the sane followup is to have him working on the same thing afterwards. Here what we have is MS hiring Tomas and Lada, but then moving them into ironRuby. So there is a some serious stuff going on. I am sure Tomas and Lada would prefer to work on PHP itself, since they have done a really good job with Phalanger, so it is a pure managerial decision to not let them work on it. Thanks.
