It looks like JeanHeyd is unwittingly used as a weapon in a conflict internal to the Rust leadership. It look to me as an escalation of the conflict : - First, a power move to invite someone outside of the community that have a strong point of view on a technical subject. As any organisation, you have to make move to make your agenda move forward. - Second, an escalation with the uninvite. Not polite, but asserts the power you have within the organisation. - Third, a resignation with a strong post that is another level of conflict.

What will happen next ?



I’m glad someone else had this read.

I do not want to pass judgment on either side or the claims made, but simply note this feels awfully similar to the way I’ve seen people treated at big corporate jobs when rival senior leaders go to war.
