I have just found out that AspenCore (0wner of several publications in the electronics industry) has laid off 4 of their technical editors. Sadly our own Max is one of them. I do not know the reasons nor do I have an idea what Aspencore will do with EE Web and their other publications.

I am not party to any of these decisions, nor do I have any more knowledge that I just imparted.

I hope they clear up the confusion soon.

Sad news, if confirmed. I like Max's relaxed style and the exchanges we have had here in the comment section have been informative and entertaining. Hopefully he will find a new niche soon.

Sad news but I shall be looking out for Max, as he will no doubt be bringing his many editorial talents to other platforms soon.
I look forward to keeping in touch with all of you who have my personal contact details. If there are any that wish to contact me and do not have my details I am contactable at email "crusty@mrcrustyathome.co.uk"

Bon Voyage Max onwards and upwards.

That is very sad to hear. I've thoroughly enjoyed Max's style of writing on EEWeb, EETimes and in Practical Electronics (which I assume he is still writing for). Thanks for sending out his details Aubrey. I'm following him now on Twitter and connected with him on LinkedIn.
Max has confirmed it on his own Twitter account: https://twitter.com/MaxMaxfield/status/1164651715448233986What does this mean for EEWeb moving forward?

Aspencore's silence is deafening.

Max will still be contributing his columns in Practical Electronics magazine and is optimistic about securing more freelance work, he is also busy speaking and touring same as ever. He said he enjoyed a very rare lie-in the other morning.Max and I bumped into each other on Usenet (sci.electronics) in the 1990s and everything went from there. He's a world-class contributor and excellent at what he does so I'm sure he'll bounce back. For our part I'll be reviewing where it leaves us after our main stakeholder in EEweb was bowled a googly (q.v.).-- Alan W

Hi everyone -- it's moi (said Max, pretentiously). The folks at Aspencore were nice about having to let me go -- it's just one of those things -- all part of life's rich tapestry -- but I really appreciate all the nice things you've said -- you're making me blush (don't stop LOL)

Aubrey, thanks for the heads up. Yes, Max will be missed around Aspencore's media, but I'm sure he'll land on his feet! Best of luck to you Max!
