RIP: Leonard Zubkoff

Posted by chrisd on from the we'll-miss-you-friend dept.

UnidentifiedCoward writes "LWN.net has a link to a blurb at KTVA, "Alaska State Troopers have recovered the bodies and released the names of two men killed late last week in a helicopter crash in Southeast. They are 38-year-old David Zampino of Fairbanks and 45-year-old Leonard Zubkoff of Crystal Bay, Nevada." Mr. Zubkoff was a linux kernel developer and the maintainer of BusLogic and DAC960 projects." Leonard was a hell of a nice guy and will be missed.

    Perhaps microsoft has a special forces division and is going after people who maintain linux.

    And the other ~fifty-thousand people that died today? Maybe you should give a good word for all of them (since you knew all of them personally, right?)
