Neil McGovern announces his
departure from the helm of the GNOME Foundation.

GNOME has changed a lot in the last 5 years, and a lot has happened
in that time. As a Foundation, we’ve gone from a small team of 3,
to employing people to work on marketing, investment in technical
frameworks, conference organisation and much more beyond. We’ve
become the default desktop on all major Linux distributions. We’ve
launched Flathub to help connect application developers directly to
their users. We’ve dealt with patent suits, trademarks, and bylaw
changes. We’ve moved our entire development platform to GitLab. We
released 10 new GNOME releases, GTK 4 and GNOME 40.
