Closing a Door

Closing a Door, in which Sarah Sharp talks about leaving the Linux kernel developer community:

Here’s the deal: I’m not a Linux kernel developer any more. I quietly transferred the maintainership of the USB 3.0 host controller driver in May 2014. In January 2015, I stepped down from being the Linux kernel coordinator for the FOSS Outreach Program for Women (OPW), and moved up to help coordinate the overall Outreachy program. As of December 6 2014, I gave what I hope is my last presentation on Linux kernel development. I was asked to help coordinate the Linux Plumbers Conference in Seattle in August 2015, and I said no. My Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board (TAB) term is soon over, and I will not be running for re-election.

Probably pretty easy to adapt to Reddit

as a side note, I love that they replace dumb comments with "fart, fart, fart, fart". I wish I could do this on Reddit
