What a terrible article. In one sentence says they stepped down in response to Brendan Eich's controversial promotion, then in another sentence says that Eich's donation was not the reason for their departure.
At no point is there an actual quote from any of these three board members that has anything to do with Eich's stance on Prop 8, and a different Mozilla exec is quoted.
What a hack job.

(I'd have to guess there's more going on than even controversy over inside/outside candidates. The departure of the prior CEO seemed a bit abrupt. Management of a non-profit has special challenges, without the normal shareholder influences or reductionist profit-making goals. That the Corp is technically a for-profit, but with a single non-profit shareholder, the Foundation, with its own separate board, just adds extra indirection to the challenges.)
