Dear Anne, A small but significant moment to start Christmas day. We honor you, your husband Bertrand and the spirit of generosity he has shown to us.
Thank you for your part in making this moment happen. I am sure Bertrand needed and appreciated your support. May your moments of silence and sorrow be short. I hope many others will learn to enjoy and appreciate Bertrand's and our community's contributions to a common good. Thank you Riccardo, your timing was impeccable. Thanks to all GNUsteppers, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Gerold -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: ANN: GWorkspace 1.0 Date: Sat, 25 Dec 2021 01:37:36 +0100 From: Riccardo Mottola <[email protected]> Organization: GNUstep To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] CC: [email protected] GWORKSPACE 1.0 -------------- Christmas, in Anno Domini 2021. This is a different announcemement than usual, since it is a special release: it is tagged 1.0 after many years of work. It is different, because it is a personal writing. The last release has been long ago, but many refinements and improvements came in; there has been a person who spurred me improving and working on GWorkspace: Bertrand Dekoninck. Hard times were the past two years and they have not been easy and the pandemic is not yet over, so in the Christmas Eve, a new release of GWorkspace has been done and it is dedicated to Bertrand: so shall he be remembered from us GNUsteppers, he, who had not the privilege to live till Christmas with his family. A reserved user who really gave the sensation to be interested in GNUstep and its applications, thus, especially GWorkspace. Continuously he proposed contributions, tested, always gentle, collaborative: a friend. I will miss him, we will miss him. Betrand, as me, worked also on PowerPC - so it was inspiring to know that supporting that Big Endian platform was useful! After the pandemic, I wanted to meet hi8mfor a hacking session, but it will no longer happen on earth. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
