InternetNews has this new story, detailing a new job listing Google have placed looking for (among other things) a project manager experienced in SourceForge (One of the biggest Open Source repositories on the net) as well as experience with Open Source licences and management tools. In the past week Google have employed two other OSS programmers, (both from the Firefox dev team). The new position will be answerable to Chris DiBona, who is known for this work on the SlashDot site. I wonder how long it will be till we find out what the purpose of all this will be. Is this another sign of a forthcoming Google browser (possibly based on Firefox)? Only time will tell.
