Longtime employee and CTO of RedHat is leaving the company.
“We want to thank Brian for his years of service and numerous contributions to Red Hat’s business. We wish him well in his future endeavors,” said Jim Whitehurst, President and CEO of Red Hat.
ZDNet reports:
Stevens' eyes may have been wandering elsewhere because of conflicts with Red Hat's president of products and technologies Paul Cormier. Cormier will be taking over the office of the CTO for the time being.
His future? It's unclear but it's possible he's moving to greener pastures, "a major California-based technology company."
Commence wild speculation! What does this mean for RedHat and GNU/Linux? Anything?

A new even more borked installer, and a new gnome 4.0. Gnome is so great, I'm expecting at least 350,000 more lines of that awesome code.
If we're really lucky, we'll get a new grub replacement!

Not likely. They'll just make systemd do grub's job and kernel panic if you try to use anything else.
