The split can already be seen in various places and this is just a
consequent continuation of the actions that MoCo has taken in the past
months. It's pretty obvious that people there exclusively care for
Firefox (since it pays their bills and wages) and do not care a bit
about the rest of the Mozilla community.

I just wish that they would openly say so, and not try to tell people
otherwise or blind people's eyes with stuff like the manifesto, which
MoCo obviously has no intention to adhere to.
