Hello Florian, RobLa has departed the Foundation. While people sometimes supply a message it is left to the individual to decide how they choose to do so. It’s inappropriate for me or any of his other colleagues to discuss them on his behalf. Rob has been with us for over six years, and he will be missed. I hope we will continue to see him in a volunteer capacity.
