Listers, Given the size of the downsizing, the fact that many of us have grown to appreciate lots of the very people in LL that may have been release, and the fact that this list circulates way beyond the dev community, PLEASE don't list the names of individual LL departures on this list.
You could easily impact their ability to get re-employed quickly as it is way easier to get another job while you still have one (or at least seem to have one). Publishing their names (even the linden names) could easily cruel their chances, and restrict their presentation options, and I am sure we would not want to repay past favours, help and friendships in that way. In the US, in particular, there is a current rising incidence of employers not accepting even applications from unemployed people, regardless of the reason, let alone employing them. I am an employer and I can assure you it does not help them - and this is not the economy to just assume that even the most talented will land on their feet.
