Wo wir schon bei der Bewertung der Arbeit sind, möchte ich noch auf die tölpelhafte Verwendung nicht typografisch korrekter, angloamerikanischer Anführungszeichen hinweisen. Vorbildlich wäre die Verwendung der Makros \glqq und \grqq beziehungsweise nach dem Einbinden der deutschen Sprache mittels \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} die folgende Schreibweise: "`..."'.

Oh yes, an update would be really interesting! (Even though I agree with @[email protected] in all points.)
My opinion on this whole topic: I don't like the decision, a Free Software project should only prevent people from contributing in very rare occasions (e.g. having actively tried to sabotage the project). I don't think this was the case, because I presume that the Linux Foundation was forced by the U.S. government to kick the maintainers out. The should've also communicated more clearly to prevent the confusion. (Russian trolls will cry out no matter how they phrased that.)
Edit: Depending on their power as a maintainer, they might be hired by intelligence and forced to just wave a backdoor through. With the Russian government waging a hybrid war against the U.S. and Europe, this poses a real problem.
Another Edit: @[email protected] mentioned that apart from Russia, the U.S., Israel and China also have a very well funded intelligence service. So banning Russian maintainers because of a potential backdoor when there are American maintainers (which could be agents) as well? I don't think it makes sense, but unfortunately the Linux Foundation won't be able to resist the "complience requirements".
