Executive Producer Dan Stahl Leaves For New Frontiers

As announced today, STO's Executive Producer, Daniel Stahl, will be leaving Cryptic at the end of this month.  The going away message was upbeat and seems to suggest that Dan has another opportunity somewhere else and that this is not involuntary.

Dan presided over a very rocky period in the game's short history, which culminated in an announcement that Star Trek Online would be relaunched as a Free-To-Play MMO along the same lines as Champions Online.

A lot of controversial decisions were made, but nobody can argue that Dan helped to shake things up and keep the game alive.

Dan's interim successor managing the project will be Cryptic's CTO, Stephen D'Angelo.  No word on who might permenently replace him.
