[yocto-ab] My involvement with Yocto Project

[Richard Purdie]

I'd indicated I was trying to figure out some way of continuing my role
with the Yocto Project. I had hoped that some kind of fellowship fund
at the Linux Foundation might be able to allow me to do that.

Unfortunately the various companies involved are "playing their cards
close to their chests" and as things stand right now, there is no
viable way for this to work out and be funded. The message from the
industry appears clear, what I do for the project clearly isn't worth
funding.

As such, from the middle of next month I will no longer be working on
the project and I now need to consider other alternative employment
options.

I'd like to thank Intel for what they've put into it over the past
years, I am proud of what the project has been able to achieve.

Cheers,

Richard
