What's wrong with that? I personally met Jiri Gaisler at a
workshop at ESTEC. I think he is doing a great job maintaining
the LEON which ESA/ESTEC let him develop when he was employee
at ESTEC. And I think it was a good idea to let him maintain
the public part of the project with his own company now,
because I don't think it's the duty of ESA to maintain it for
the public side.
