+5.1 is dedicated to the memory of Martti Kuparinen, who
+was the victim of a traffic accident in June 2010.
+.Pp
+Martti's technical contributions are too many to list here in full.
+He created and maintained numerous packages in pkgsrc, updated two
+packet filter solutions distributed with
+.Nx
+and improved several
+hardware drivers. Beyond that he was always helpful and friendly. His
+example encouraged users to contribute to the project and share their
+work with the community. Some of these users later became
+.Nx
+developers themselves thanks to Martti's efforts.
