Astral to join OpenAI

Astral has entered into an agreement to join OpenAI as part of the Codex team.

@veronica Isn't the same true of Microsoft controlling Node.js npm, and of Microsoft and NVidia controlling the white-box switch ecosystem between them?
@bms48 Sure, but not sure why that's relevant to what's happening to Astral.
