Mark Shuttleworth has announced that, as of March, he'll relinquish the job of Canonical CEO to Jane Silber. "I’ve become very passionate about design and quality, and want to spend more time figuring out how we harness the collaborative process to build better, more insightful products. I can’t think of a more interesting challenge, and luckily I couldn’t think of a better person to take over my formal management and leadership responsibilities at Canonical than Jane."
