And I renew my objection to using an engineer req to hire a manager.
If you are going to try and tell me to re-justify (even though you and
I worked on it together back in June/July/August time) engineers for my
group, well, I think you're saying that because you haven't done the
work to justify this position to HR/etc and get a separate req for it.

It's not fair, and I can't keep juggling candidates and making them wait
months for a decision.

I (and you) worked hard to produce the justifications for the engineers
that we needed.

I hope you can hear this.  Hiring Ankur falls into a similar boat: the
deal when we left the meeting was to wait on everyone but John until
the decision from Terence and Kingsbury came in.  But they accepted, so
there's no justification for hiring Ankur.  We have roughly twice the
people in the filesystem group that we need for their deliverables.

Craig is different because we probably do need him.

I'm bringing Vahid in to interview.  Would you like to talk to him?
