I believe so, Brian.  Currently there are at least 13 positions open at WU, with 6 of those positions as being either Software Developer or Software Designer.

Maybe they can create their own live map and do it better than that horrible version of the current Wundermap.

Thanks for sharing.

Sounds like they want to get more into the customer facing aspects of the data. Maybe we'll see additional features with MyAcurite going forward.
