This fact has been widely misrepresented by the press. Unless the New York Times is misquoting him, Lilly has tied his decision to resign directly to Eich's elevation to the CEO position. <http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/05/technology/personality-and-change-inflamed-crisis-at-mozilla.html> Mr. Lilly, now a venture capitalist with Greylock Partners, resigned from the Mozilla board two weeks ago, ahead of Mr. Eich’s appointment. “I left rather than appoint him,” he said, declining to elaborate further. Note though that he did *not* tie it to Eich's support of Prop 8. _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
