Richard Turner - What is your advice to developers who are thinking about Indigo and…

Do you have executives who virtually watch you while you work? Are you one of a handful of guys who are at the center of building a product that generates multi-billions of dollars in revenue? Are you one of the guys responsible for making sure that Microsoft's most important product ships on time?
Jason Sutherland, who is part of the team responsible for building Longhorn, deals with all that and more, so we wondered what the hardest part of Jason's job was.
On the other hand, we wondered what the upside of doing such a job is. Jason answers both.
Longhorn has been promoted as a 'bet the company' product and release. I had wondered some time ago how the release team is coping with the pressure.
It is great to see that the guys in charge of the Longhorn release can still smile and enjoy working on one the most talked product drops in Microsoft's history .
Hopefully we'll hear more from Jason soon.
