Guido van Rossum joins Microsoft

The creator of the Python programming language, Guido van Rossum, made a somewhat shocking announcement:

I got bored in retirement, so I went to work in the Developer Division at Microsoft. What will I do? There are so many options, I don’t even know what to choose! But as a result, using Python will become more convenient (and not only on Windows :-). There's a lot of open source stuff here. Follow the news.
