Dear colleagues, We were all very saddened yesterday to learn that Fearghas McKay had passed away while attending a conference. No doubt this will come as a shock to his family and those of us who knew him from his work in the community.
Fearghas has been an active participant in the RIPE community for many years. He served as Chair of the EIX Working Group from 1998-2013, and has been a part of programme committees and steering groups for a number of Network Operator Groups and peering forums, including AfPIF, CAPIF and UKNOF, often taking the role of co-chair within these groups. He was also a RIPE Atlas Ambassador for several years, helping to introduce Internet measurements to network operators around the world. His contributions have helped shape the RIPE community and the interconnection world more broadly. We will miss his energy, his humour, and his friendship. On behalf of the RIPE community we wish to extend our condolences to Fearghas’s family and friends.
