2023-06-23: Content & Tooling Team Status Update
Categories:
With coming into the Summer and holidays planned across the team this blog may start to become a bit quieter. We will continue to publish, even if some weeks all it contains is a ‘Hello’ and an update on releases cut in the past week. In the background we are doing quite a bit of maintenance, house keeping and prep for kicking off development on our Q3 commitments.
Say Hello to David Sandilands
Some of you may already know David or the likelihood is you have chatted to him already at a conference. We are delighted to introduce David as one of our new Product Managers, he has been working with the team for a few months now and we feel it is only right to announce it to the wider Community. Davids main focus will be on the teams supported tools including but not limited to the PDK, Visual Studio Code Extension, DSC Builder and many other things! Watch this Space…..
