Just read on Planet KDE, that Robin Burchell is leaving Jolla 
. Find that quite sad, he often contributed to this forum.

The question is why he is leaving. It might not be sad story at all.
And when you think of it. Maybe he can share some more info now when he free from the Jsect. Hope he stays here and share some light about the dark organization.

The why would be in deed interesting. But without any information it's quite useless to speculate.
The sad part for me is, that he was contibuting to this forum, giving answers and statements. And I don't think he is allowed to give more information after leaving Jolla.
And even if he is allowed to, I don't think he will do. Talking about internals of the company you left, isn't a good application for your next job.

Even if I won't be working there any longer (or at least for now - who can tell what the future holds) - I still have a Jolla to call my own, and many roots in the devices & operating systems at the center of this community.
So no, I don't think I'll be vanishing from here all of a sudden. Maybe over time, maybe not. I'll still be happy to try - as much as I can - to spread my knowledge and help those who I can, as any good person would.
As for my leaving, I thought I had made it fairly clear, but perhaps not - that it was just time for change. It's been a few years now, and I've loved it, but eventually change has to come, even if just for a while. Our experiences are what define us as people, and so I think that to grow as people, change is a healthy thing.
