      I think it’s safe to blame that first one on Linus’ absence.

      Sort of. The person that made the initial commit is not the one that quit (Rust side).

    Just proves to me that this should’ve gone to remediation so much earlier. Losing three important contributors to the Kernel, because people were scared of involving the Code of Conduct Committee from the start, is a shit sandwich, regardless of whoever you want to blame for this.

    I’m not gonna lose sleep over his departure but the Linux foundation could do a lot to improve the professionalism of the project instead of dumping money on chasing AI.

    I hate that it came to this, after so many Rust devs left, but all I can say is “Good.”

    Good that there’s a maintainer in place, too. Sad that it came to this, but perhaps it’s time to pass the torch.

    Completely off topic, but I first read that as ‘DNA’, did a double take.

    At this point, an announcement that whoever is in charge of all DNA continuing to work just stepped down or got fired… wouldn’t really seem that out of character for this timeline.
