I just noticed that there haven't been any new AMA threads and MellieDM no longer has the red staff banner they used to have. They also haven't made any posts since the last AMA. Are the AMAs no longer happening? I thought they were very useful, and were started as a response to user feedback of the staff not visibly listening to our feedback.
Also, is there a reason for their departure? I find it odd that they just... left without a word or announcement about it. Are they a casualty of the WOTC acquisition?
Leaving OGL 1.0(a) untouched and making SRD 5.1 CC-BY-4.0 is a great first step. The next is a promise to do the same for future editions. Here's a discussion thread on that.
She accepted a new position at a different company. I believe it was unrelated to the WotC acquisition, but pursuing a good opportunity that showed up. This is all based off her Twitter profile.

AMAs haven't happened recently. Dev Updates are gone. It seems like the forums are dying quietly. The lack of response to basic questions or bugs is telling. The only responses seem to come from people saying what I just said.
We sure do get told about new things to buy though!

But what's going to happen to the AMAs now?

That'll be a good question for our new community manager, Sarah Chaffee (they/them) once they've settled in here.
