> He has not, and said he will not, so it’s too late in my mind. Any public change of opinion at this time would only be to ensure his new powerful position at the Mozilla foundation.
I disagree with this, hence my post. I think if he puts his money where his mouth is, that good undoes his past failings. I don't think he is going to use Mozilla as a vehicle for promoting homophobia. Therefore, I see two options:
1) he leaves, Mozilla doesn't contribute to societal homophobia, and there is no monetary contribution.
2) he stays, Mozilla doesn't contribute to societal homophobia, and there is a monetary contribution.
(Option #3 where he leaves and also makes a monetary contribution is extremely unlikely to happen, so I will not list it here)
I am admittedly very pragmatic about these issues. I don't care if he is shamed by being forced out of the company. I don't think that really helps.
