Among those seven listed as laid-off this week in Bad Week… « NeoGrognard , Andy Collins was listed as "Manager of D&D editing and development", so I guess it's his position.

Reason: grammar
This changes absolutely nothing for me, since Mike's vision of what D&D should be is far, far away from my own. Still - best of luck and I'm sure he'll do what he believes is best for the brand.

Note that [early into the life- or development-cycle of 5th Edition], we will [probably] be wishing Mike well again, in a round of seemingly-random WotC layoffs.
FIFY. But you're probably right. So it goes.
The best we can hope for is that Mr Mearls has a good run while he's there, and that "the next guy" breathes as much life into the game as Mike does!
PS: Congratulations, good luck, and Godspeed, Mike!
Note that, in 4 years or less, we will be wishing Mike well again, in a round of seemingly-random WotC layoffs.
FWIW, this is pretty good evidence that WotC doesn't have a 5e planned for the immediate future. Now once Mearls leaves, that's probably the point I stop buying 4e books because 5e is going to be in development from that point on.
