Shouldn't we put a hint about our in deep grief on the start page of
documentation.openoffice.org?
Frank is working on the updates now, if you want I can send the proposed

My thoughts go out to his family and friends too.
I will forward this sad news to ooauthors.org and the German dev list
too.
We will miss him and his never sleeping eyes on so much tasks.
