Welcome Charlie

My old friend and colleague, Charlie Calvert, has recently joined the C# team as a Program Manager.  I'm really excited about having Charlie on the VS languages team, not just because it's great to have another old friend move to town but also because I have a great amount of respect for his abilities.  Many of you may already be familiar with Charlie from his fine books and articles or his many years of developer relations work at Borland.  Chief among Charlie's duties will be to act as the interface between the C# product unit and the C# community, and I can't think of someone better suited to the task.

Charlie joins a number of other ex-Borlanders here at Microsoft, including Anders, Chuck, Blake, Danny, me, and several others.  It seems like we should start some kind club.  Maybe even something with a secret handshake! Or better yet, go all out and do the whole shadowy Masonic/Illuminati/Priory of Sion thing! Hmmm, that sounds like a lot of work.  Maybe we'll all just stick to saying "hi" to each other in the hallways.
