Move to CA[edit]

Don's leaving Microsoft is confirmed on his Microsoft page and his arrival at CA is confirmed on his blog. I still haven't seen any announcement from CA. --RichardVeryard (talk) 10:23, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Complexity[edit]

I have removed a statement accusing Dr Ferguson of "a reputation for adding deep complexity to designs, often leading to inscrutable interfaces". This apparently negative statement is based solely on a disagreement with James Governor, which is not conclusive evidence either for Ferguson's position on complexity or for his having a reputation for such a position. Ferguson defends himself on his blog. I should declare that I know both Don and James, and have disagreed publicly with both of them on various issues, but my editorial action here is based on Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. --RichardVeryard (talk) 10:34, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

seeka.tv[edit]

Apparently the man's moved on to a startup, Seeka.tv. He also likes obamacare. http://money.cnn.com/2016/11/18/news/economy/obamacare-entrepreneurs-trump/ TMLutas (talk) 22:57, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
