Charles, Thanks for reaching out. I realize that you are upset because you believe that we have fired Brendan and because you believe that his opinions were not accepted at Mozilla.
However, I would like to stress out that this is not what happened. Brendan was entitled to his opinions, just as any other employee, and we did not fire him. Since you are not the only person who has come forward to express their concerns on the topic, we have put together a page that I hope will answer your remarks: https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/04/05/faq-on-ceo-resignation/ Best regards, David On 10/04/14 18:40, Charles Mathews wrote: > 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.
