Yeah a couple of Mozillians who've worked closely with him mentioned news of the donation were at odds and struck them by surprise, also because it was not otherwise observable in any of his behavior.
It starts to become a litmus test when trying to define when it's acceptable to boycott and demand resignation. Was Mozilla a special case because of their mission and foundation status? What behavior makes someone's position unacceptable? A large donation? a small donation, a vote? Or is it due to outside community consensus at the time? so when the donation was discovered in 2011, it wasn't appropriate, but reappearing after more passing years it is?
