In Memoriam: Dr. Jon Postel

in Code

IN MEMORIAM

Dr. Jonathan B. Postel
August 3, 1943 - October 16, 1998

So much for my coincidence.

John Crain set me straight on this last night…he also mentioned that there is a tradition of not using the network on October 16th to commemorate John’s passing.

Very fitting.

We need to make sure we remember those that made all of this possible…
