If they don't accept people like Paul, they obviously have no idea what linux audio is all about. I think that if this job opening was for real, the offer would have come from a xyz@sun.com email address. Sun should not have to call on a 3rd party just to send emails to a mailing list. If this opening was in fact truly from sun, then too bad, because I doubt they will find anyone now that they have rejected Paul. Summary: I think the "job opening at sun" email was for some other devious purpose apart from offering a job.
