I am saddened by this loss. Such a passionate figurehead in the
distributed computing industry, as far as I can tell.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pieter_Hintjens (62-12-03 - 16-10-04 age 53)

Didn't know him personally, but the world has lost a light, the
industry lost a fellow traveler. Far too young a soul to have passed
from this earth.
