I have accepted
a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210721200208/https://www.torproject.org/about/jobs/rust-dev/">job</a>
with the <a href="https://www.torproject.org/">Tor Project</a>.
<p>
I joined XenSource to work
on <a href="https://xenproject.org/">Xen</a> in late 2007, as
XenSource was being acquired by Citrix. So I have been at Citrix
for about 14 years. I have really enjoyed working on Xen. There
have been a variety of great people. I'm very proud of some
of the things we built and achieved. I'm particularly proud
of being part of a community that has provided the space for some
of my excellent colleagues to really grow.
<p>
But the opportunity to go and work on a project I am so
ideologically aligned with, and to work with Rust full-time,
is too good to resist.
That Tor is mostly written in C is quite terrifying, and
I'm very happy that I'm going to help fix that!</p></p></p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=diziet&ditemid=10255" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
