Dear Susanna,

we would like nothing better than to rehire Brendan. In fact, we didn't
want him to leave the company in the first place.

You might have read some things about this topic that aren't quite correct,
because sadly the press has in general done a very poor job at
fact-checking this story. Since you care deeply enough to send this message
instead of silently turning your back on us, you might be interested in
some attempts to clear up a lot of this misinformation:

Here is a short collection of facts about what happened:
https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/04/05/faq-on-ceo-resignation/
and here's a longer version: https://medium.com/p/7645a4bf8a2

Finally, here's a perspective on all of this from a colleague here at
Mozilla, who's not only one of the key people shaping our community's
policies, but also a public supporter of Brendan's views on the very topic
that triggered this mess:

thank you,
