To let you both know that your childishness over Eich's donation
prompted me to drop Firefox after more years than I'd care to remember.
I'm now using Chrome. I haven't decided what to do about Thunderbird
yet. I liked both Firefox and Thunder, but to fire someone for this is
more that I can accept. I don't care anymore one way or the other about
the marriage issue. It's sad to see, but marriage is becoming more and
more irrelevant. We've been married for 42 years, and it used to mean
something.
At Mozilla and OKcupid, free thinking and opinion don't exist. Mozilla
should have kept Eich and fired the board and anyone else that howled
about this insignificant issue.
Even worse, OKcupid founder Sam Yagan supported an anti-homosexual
marriage candidate in Utah ($500). Shouldn't he also be fired? Hypocrisy
anyone??
A photographer in New Mexico declined to cover a lesbian wedding, and
the government is fining her and likely putting her out of business --
the same for a baker in Colorado who sells his baked goods to anyone,
but not wedding cakes to same-sex weddings. So much for freedom of religion.
From what I can tell, Eich was really the heart of Mozilla from the
beginning, and is the best person for the job.
