Heya, this would be a killer opportunity to get someone into
this
position that could help promote open standards, CC, etc
internally.
Please contact me if you would like an introduction for this
job.
Just to reiterate, Gunar is the XMP product manager at adobe
who
released the XMP toolkit under a bsd license which has
empowered eXMPi,
liblicense and other apps. It would be a cool gig.
