Following arguments on the Linux kernel mailing list the past few days over some Linux kernel maintainers being against the notion of Rust code in the mainline Linux kernel and trying to avoid it and very passionate views over the Linux kernel development process, Asahi Linux lead developer Hector Martin has removed himself from being an upstream maintainer of the ARM Apple code.

I understand that. Part of the reason I financially backed him was that he upstreamed his work. Without, I do not see a reason to support him any longer. If other maintainers who are upstreaming the code have a way that I can financially support them, I will do that.
