Nat comes from the Microsoft side, not the GitHub side.

You are technically right, but Nat comes from Microsoft's acquisition of Xamarin. He definitely is not a lifelong Microsoft employee.

I don't think that matters in the context of what's being discussed here.

If there were any retention contracts that came with GitHub acquisition, that probably didn't apply to him.

To me, Nat and Miguel come from Xamarin Desktop, which made Linux on the desktop an actual pleasure in the late 90's/early 2000's. They're a couple of my heroes.
