Russ Allbery is resigning from the Technical Committee: https://lists.debian.org/debian-ctte/2014/11/msg00071.html Russ was, to my mind, a voice of reason through this entire process. Losing him is a bad, bad sign.

To be clear, only Joey Hess actually left Debian. The other two only left particular positions within Debian, but are staying on with other positions.
