I only heard this morning, as I checked the syntax of the cerowrt credits list. He was a tremendous help, and inspiration, during the early stages of the bufferbloat project. He was one of the first people on the mailing list. He worked behind the scenes, helping setup and maintain the website. He reviewed and edited papers and documentation, provided advice, and wrote his own blog entries. He truly 'got' and loved the internet, as we wanted it to be, in so many ways, and fought things like SOPA with his last dying breath. He wrote for over two decades, the digital rag. http://digital-rag.com/ And brought webcams to eagles nests. http://www.hancockwildlife.org/ I spoke to him last only a few days before he passed... and was at the "pre-wake" party he threw in February. It was a far, far better party than an actual wake, and if I'm given the opportunity to do the same with the end of my life, I'm going to do it the same way. All the same... I wished I'd got to know him decades ago. --=20 Dave T=E4ht SKYPE: davetaht US Tel: 1-239-829-5608 http://www.bufferbloat.net
