Prof Laurie Hendren passed away
Dear community, Although I have not been involved with GCC for a number of years, I would like to share with the whole community the sad news that Prof Laurie Hendren passed away recently. Her work on SIMPLE was a key inspiration for the Tree SSA work in the early 2000s ( https://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/projects/tree-ssa/). I briefly interacted with Laurie when she agreed to be an external reviewer for my PhD thesis and, later on, when we started working on GIMPLE. She taught me a lot and was always ready to help and offer guidance, with a smile and keen insight. I will always be grateful for that. Here is the announcement from McGill: https://www.cs.mcgill.ca/news/105/ Laurie's wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurie_Hendren Albert Cohen tells me that SIGPLAN is preparing a formal post, and a statement at PLDI next month. Probably more. Diego.

No, sorry. I would have to do some serious archaeology to even remember what problem I was having. Diego.
