Derek Powazek parts publicly with JPG/8020

He said:

“I chose to tell this story because I wanted the community I spent three years growing to know that I didn’t leave on a whim. As sad and embarrasing as it is to tell, I put the truth out there because my personal and professional credibility is on the line.”

He has lessons learned, and everything. Be good here.

Though I’d also be interested in reading about http://powazek.com/posts/542—should he have told-all publicly? What kind of trouble will he get in?
