Ex-Maintainer Bemoans Linux Kernel Community's 'Toxic Background Radiation'

Longtime Linux kernel developer Sarah Sharp last week published a blog post detailing her reasons for quitting the Linux kernel community. Sharp maintained the USB 3.0 host controller driver until January, when she decided to leave rather than continue to "contribute to a community where I was technically respected, but I could not ask for personal respect," she wrote. While it has shone a light on a problem that others previously have pointed out, Sharp's resignation may do little to change the status quo.
