I just checked in on this thread, and was amazed to discover that an old familiar name,

Samuel Klein, was reading it.
(He has a WR account but has never said anything.)
Well, Master Klein? Would you care to comment?
Hello Eric & all. I'm just up late on a maté kick, avoiding both sleep and work by browsing WR. I don't have much to add here, though this seems to be one of the first places where Mike's departure was discussed at any length.

The Foundation has started releasing Q&As alongside many announcements, including major arrivals and departures. See for instance:
