Richard Williamson, who oversaw the mapping team, was pushed out by Senior Vice President Eddy Cue, said the people, who asked not to be named because the information wasn’t yet public. Cue, who took over last month as part of a management shakeup... This has been months in the making. Is this personnel change interesting to anyone other Apple-watchers and investors? E.g., it's on Bloomberg and HN, but not CNN. This is today's CNN Apple story: http://www.cnn.com/2012/11/27/tech/web/bing-search-2012/index.html http://www.cnn.com/2012/11/27/tech/web/bing-search-2012/inde... It hardly seems to have affected investors either: Apple shares slipped less than 1 percent to $586.81 at 2:01 p.m. in New York. The stock has gained 45 percent so far this year. As part of the management overhaul, Cue -- who oversees Apple’s iTunes, App Store and iCloud services -- was also put in charge of maps and the Siri voice-recognition tool, bringing all of the company’s online services under one group. I think it's unrealistic to think that Apple-internal project/product management staff changes will be put on hold for months simply due to the shopping season. The executives probably feel this "overhaul" is quite urgent and is holding up deadlines.
