Hi Osiris,

I first learned of ZeroMQ/Pieter when I listened to him on Floss Weekly in
2011. I had been working with CORBA based systems for several years at that
point on knew there must be a better way - I just didn't know that way was
with ZeroMQ!
I then used ZeroMQ for several projects, and sent Pieter a note at one
point thanking him for what he had done and he kindly replied. He even
offered to buy me a beer if we were ever able to meet in person.
Unfortunately, I never met him in person, but clearly, he was a visionary
with the gift of seeing the future in messaging.
Once again, I'm using ZeroMQ at my new job/company and often put in the
comments "RIP Pieter Hintjens".  Maybe someone who reads the comments later
on will bother to figure out who he was.

Thanks,

Mark
