On: Bram Moolenaar has died

[sgt]

Incredibly sorry to hear this. The times I have seen his name.. or thought about who this guy might be, and that he not only is a super programmer but also a humanitarian. Too countless to think about. RIP.

You'll be seeing it *much* more often in the coming years as those of the older generation -- who made such large contributions -- pass on.

Sadly this was my thought too. It's a way to start feeling super old, when the first generation start to die, and very few of the heros of open source have. But we're all getting old...
