Now, today, I just found from a Seattle Post newspaper link something I really liked to see, a Job opportunity for FreeBSD developers aiming exactly this matter. And with a very, very promissing description: (reproducing) Software Engineer - FreeBSD Kernel Developer Tracking Code 2007136 Job Description Isilon Systems is the Leader in Clustered Storage. Each node in an Isilon Cluster runs an operating system based on FreeBSD. We're looking for FreeBSD Kernel Developers to join our team and build our technology in various areas: Requirements: * Geom, disks and disk scheduling * FreeBSD's TCP/IP stack * Client protocols (NFS/CIFS) * OFED/Infiniband * FreeBSD's UMA allocator * FreeBSD's VFS * Everything else you can imagine a distributed filesystem might need! The ideal candidate: * has more than 5 years of development, with at least two years working on a BSD kernel * has great team skills and likes to work hard and have fun * has a bachelor's degree in a science or mathematics * is a FreeBSD kernel committer Responsibilities include coding, debugging, shipping, maintaining and documenting products. In addition, a kernel committer will act as liaison with the FreeBSD project to commit useful Isilon technologies back to FreeBSD. FreeBSD has been a great choice for Isilon. Help us give back the things that we've improved over the years! Come find out about jobs at isilon!! A non-disclosure agreement must be signed prior to an interview. Isilon Systems is an equal opportunity employer. Relocation Available Job Location Seattle, WA, US. Position Type Full-Time/Regular (end reproducing) The (huge) link: http://hostedjobs.openhire.com/epostings/jobs/submit.cfm?fuseaction=dspjob&jobid=189932&company_id=15714&version=1&source=ONLINE&jobOwner=977329&aid=1 The very promissing sentence, in my understading: "In addition, a kernel committer will act as liaison with the FreeBSD project to commit useful Isilon technologies back to FreeBSD. FreeBSD has been a great choice for Isilon. Help us give back the things that we've improved over the years! Come find out about jobs at isilon!!" So, now I hope we will read more precise information about development on a shared file system on FreeBSD on the next quarterly report :) I hope interested commiters have already seen this job call. -- Patrick Tracanelli
