[Intel-wired-lan] Expected effects of layoffs on driver Intel Wired Ethernet driver development?

[Paul Menzel]

Dear Intel Wired Ethernet Linux Kernel driver folks,


It looks like some developers are not working for Intel anymore – like 
Sasha Neftin. I assume this is a result of layoffs from the news [1]. Is 
this true, or was the team *not* affected by the layoffs, and developers 
just moved on by themselves?

If it was due to layoffs, could you please share, how the team was 
affected and how Intel is going to make sure, that driver developments 
continues as before, so customers know what to expect?


Kind regards,

Paul
