\"Changes\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dear friends of WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux, nee “Bash on [Ubuntu on] Windows”) & Windows Console:<\/p>\n

I would like to share with you some changes to our org’ that will benefit WSL, Windows Console and the Windows command-line in general moving forward.<\/p>\n

After shipping a major new release, Microsoft often shuffles teams and people around to better align and optimize operations. After we wrapped-up engineering on Fall Creators Update a few weeks ago, we integrated the WSL engineering team into the organization that owns Containers and Hyper-V. This is a great move as it brings together several enormously talented teams all sharing the goal of making Windows a great platform upon which to run all your Windows *and<\/strong> *your Linux code!<\/p>\n

\n Note: This doesn’t mean we’re merging products or code-bases: WSL, Containers, and Hyper-V continue to serve different segments of the spectrum of offerings that allow you to run Linux binaries on Windows. But it will mean we have a greater pool of people, experience, knowledge, and skills to draw from.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n

This integration also brought new PM’s to WSL: For those that don’t already know them, I’d like to introduce you to Sarah Cooley (@virtualscooley<\/a>), and Taylor Brown (@taylorb_msft<\/a>) are the key PM’s working on the kernel-side of the WSL\/Containers\/Hyper-V house.<\/p>\n

We’ve also been expanding our team here in Windows Developer Platform: Tara Raj (@tara_msft<\/a>) recently joined our team and will be partnering with the base team, helping <\/span>plan and deliver future WSL features. She’ll also be helping-out with a lot of our public-facing conversations on Twitter, Reddit, Stack Overflow, GitHub, etc.<\/p>\n

The addition of these new team members means I’ll be able to dedicate more time to the Windows Console overhaul project, but I will still be working with Tara and Sarah & teams on WSL so I am not going to be far away! \ud83e\udd2a<\/p>\n

Do please send Tara, Sarah, and team a tweet welcoming them the team.<\/p>\n

And do feel free to reach out to us if you have questions\/issues not already covered in our GitHub Issues (WSL<\/a>, Console<\/a>), asks on UserVoice<\/a>, or after reading our docs (WSL<\/a>, Console<\/a>) and\/or reviewing our WSL \/ Console learning materials<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Many thanks,<\/p>\n
