Hi Wes! Thanks for your answer :) I understand that, however, like MZMcBride explained, Rob was involved in so many things, and it would be nice, if the community get at least an information, that Rob doesn't work for the foundation anymore, so the community could react accordingly, if we're waiting for RobLa's response. And it would be even more interesting, as MZMcBride already asked, what happens to his position in co-organizing the developer summit, especially as he was (iirc) part of the "programs committee"? :)

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.
