He also has a PhD in computational physics and had leading positions in major European telecommunications and energy infrastructure companies. What kind of CV would you expect for you to say he knows what he's talking about? Because I'm honestly having a hard time thinking of something. Maybe being exec/CTO at a FAANG? (but then that'd make him appear biased).

  In general, he has a strong science and business background which is good for his position. What I don't see is any connection to Open Source specifically. It's not like he was a manager at SuSE in his early career, for example.

    And that's good, he may prefer Debian/Ubuntu derivatives.
