Hello Florian,
RobLa has departed the Foundation. While people sometimes supply a message it is left to
the individual to decide how they choose to do so. It’s inappropriate for me or any of
his other colleagues to discuss them on his behalf. Rob has been with us for over six
years, and he will be missed. I hope we will continue to see him in a volunteer capacity.
Regards,
Wes

Hi all,
just a moment ago I noticed, that Rob Lanphier seems to (silently) does not
work for the WMF anymore? At least based on a comment on his WMF-account's
talk page[1] and a commit in gerrit[2] it seems he doesn't work at the WMF
anymore.
However: What happened? I haven't seen any public info about this? Can
someone explain what happened? I'm really interested in it, as I really like
RobLa, both as a person (at least from what I saw/read so far) and the
professional /technical input and things he did. Would be nice, if someone
could bring some light into the darkness :P
Best,
Florian
