John,

Thanks for reaching out and voicing your concern.

I realize it looks like we fired Brendan because of the outcry from an
external group. We didn't. Brendan chose to leave Mozilla because of the
untenable outside pressure put both on Mozilla and him personally.

We are sorry that he decided to leave. I realize that we could possibly
have done some things better – starting with our communication on
official channels – but I would like to convince you that we are not to
blame. It is my belief that Brendan would be welcome if he decides to
change his mind and return as CTO.

If you have any question, do not hesitate to ask. I will do my best to
answer them.

Best regards,
 David
