I was just reading over the first PR I ever made to CZMQ and thinking about
the first time I met Pieter, in London in 2013. We had a wonderful evening

I'm so glad to have known him, grateful for the impact he had on my life,
and grateful to be a member of this community with all of you.

Cheers,
Brian
