Earlier this year, Hector Martin resigned from kernel development because he claimed kernel devs were trying to sabotage efforts to get Rust into the kernel. While he's been gone, it seems the pace of Rust integration has increased significantly, suggesting that maybe he was the problem all along.

Lesson: always push out egomaniacs who like to create drama more than they want to solve problems.

Or maybe the resignation was a wake-up call that resulted in systemic changes.

I have no idea what the actual case is, but there are often multiple possible causes.
