Avie Tevanian to Leave Apple
Avie Tevanian to Leave Apple
by , 8:25 AM EST, March 28th, 2006
Apple's chief technology officer, Avadis "Avie" Tevanian, is retiring from the company to pursue other interests. According to SFGate, his official last day is March 31, but he hasn't said what his post-Apple plans are yet.
Mr. Tevanian started at Apple in 1997, and has been instrumental in the development of Mac OS X. Previously, he worked for Steve Jobs at NeXT. He was also very active in the development of the Mach kernel, which is used in Mac OS X, while working on his M.S. and Ph.D degrees at Carnegie Mellon University.

wonder what this means for development of leopard?
I'm sure Leopard's foundation has been laid and Avie played a part in that. All Apple has to do now is finish it off with the touches it usually makes to every area of the OS.
I hope Avie writes a book or talks about Apple and Steve sometime soon. It's always fascinating to know what goes on inside the world's greatest computer company.
