That was right around the time the OSSU-UI and OSSU-API teams left the project en masse. Tracking profile progress via GitHub issues wasn't feasible so we were working on a site where users could login with their GH account, choose a curriculum track, and manage their progress. Between the 2 teams there were about a dozen very active contributors. Things were marching quickly toward a MVP. One contributor even purchased a domain name for the site. Eric came kind of late to the party to the actual development. We had already elected team leads and used a consensus model for decision making. Eric either didn't understand or didn't approve of the direction some things were going. He probably meant well but he was leaning very heavily on the 'my way or the highway' approach to coercing the devs. At one point I stood up for the decisions the teams had already come to a consensus on and was threatened with being kicked from the project as a result. I left soon after when he started screwing around with write access permissions to the project repositories. One of the other core contributors reached out to me directly a few weeks later. From what I heard, Eric decided to ditch the existing development effort in favor of building a static generated HTML site. As a result, all of the active devs left. That's pretty much the exact point in time when his contributions stopped. Aside: I don't know if this has anything to do with it but he was trying to get me or one of the other devs in the US to create a non-profit organization (ie 501c) for the project.
