Trolltech has announced that its co-founder Eirik Chambe-Eng has stepped down as co-CEO of the company (something Norwegian law allows), leaving Haavard Nord the sole CEO. Mr Chambe-Eng has done this because he is suffering from age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which causes deterioration of the eyesight, and "the stress and workload associated with being CEO of a public company is not compatible with this condition". However, he will continue to work with the company.
