subject: Raspberry Pi `merger`

"We’ve got some great news to share today: the Raspberry Pi Foundation
is joining forces with the CoderDojo Foundation, in a merger that will
give many more young people all over the world new opportunities to
learn how to be creative with technology."

Good thing? Bad thing? AISI it depends on what kind of "merger" they mean.

"In technical terms, the Raspberry Pi Foundation is becoming a corporate
member of the CoderDojo Foundation (which is a bit like being a
shareholder, but without any financial interest). I will also join the
board of the CoderDojo Foundation as a director. The merger is subject
to approval by Irish regulators."

It sounds as though the Foundation will maintain its independence
despite merging with another organisation.
