Last week, HP delivered on a promise that few thought would ever be met; make WebOS fully open source by September 2012. Well, not only did they do it, they are preparing to put a lot of steam behind the project. We’re Hiring (HP) When a major corporation like HP puts real financial effort behind an open source project of any kind, there is little to complain about. This is no exception. HP has created 53 jobs in Sunnyvale and Shanghai to make WebOS fly. Nearly all of these jobs are high paying engineering positions.
