I'm a friend of Rafael and talked to him just before he announced that he was leaving LLVM. I actually disagree with many of Rafael's political views but I think that some of the comments in this discussion are unfair. For example, one poster assumed that Rafael is a member of the right - he is actually a member of the BC Green Party, which is firmly on the left. The LLVM code of conduct requires that people be welcoming to others of any religion. I don't want to share too much about Rafael's personal life but he has reasons why that requirement is problematic. Consider that some religious beliefs make women chattel that can be abused at the discretion of their "owners".
