I remember their appointment from brodie's video on this, and iirc, they were someone who has been in community for ~20 years, and they also had some kind of vision disability (not 100% sure), because of which there was hope that gnome would do more investments on accessibilty front. Which to gnome's credit, they have the best among other wayland folks, but this feels to sson. if it had been a year or 2, it would have made sense (they already were an old person, so time was not favoring them), because it is reasonable for such posts 2 change in that timeframe. the previous director also left in 5-6 months, then this person in 4, it really speaks something about gnome's board

That is...not good news
