Pete and Mark been at MSFT for over a year

Kim finally wrote about to “recent” about a year ago hires of MSFT of Pete Rowley and Mark Wahl. They attended RSA last year both with MSFT on their badges and both had moved their families to the Seattle area which to mean meant MSFT was serious about hiring smart good people to work on their identity products. Neither would talk about what projects they were working on though – it is nice to finally know know.
Pete is “working on evolving the Identity Lifecycle Manager (ILM)”. Ironically enough Pete’s blog was called Open Pete Rowley but he hasn’t bloged since RSA last year.
“Mark is now applying his creativity to evolving the vision, roadmap and architecture for the convergence of identity and security lifecycle management products”
