I'll add my voice as another former DEC colleague who was saddened by this news.
Jim never shied away from a challenging or contentious job. For example, the work on enterprise networks in RFCs 4852, 4057 could only have been done by someone with Jim's fortitude. I believe we are all better off for having known Jim, and I will miss him.
