Hi David, thanks for taking the time to share this bad news with the list. That's a very sad news.
The paypal account recently received around 100 euros from a couple of donators. I'll give that money back for James' funeral, and will add a bit or two to the pot. I didn't know very well James but I remember a kind a pleasant person while we discussed about Dancer. I'm sad he passed away in such an unexpected and tragic way. May the peace be with his soul. 2014-08-13 10:45 GMT+02:00 David Precious <[email protected]>: > > Hi all, > > Sadly, my friend and colleague James Aitken (LoonyPandora/JAITKEN), who > contributed to Dancer and wrote several Dancer plugins, died > unexpectedly last week. > > He was hit by a car back in June and suffered head injuries, but had > mostly recovered - but then took a sudden turn for the worse, and passed > away last week.
