The lack of tech industry news coverage of Brooke Vibber leaving the Wikimedia Foundation
(Fediverse post of
screencap from the wikitech-l mailing list) shows how we don't really have news for
this field any more.
(The general sentiment is that this is fallout from union busting as the new CEO for the
Wikimedia Foundation brings experience and culture from J.P. Morgan and
Lehman Brothers
into the non-profit field.)
