[zeromq-dev] In memory of Pieter: Riding to conquer rare cancers

2016-11-10 Thread Yurii Rashkovskii
Hi everybody,

Next year, I will be participating in a Canadian Ride to Conquer Cancer. It
is a fundraiser for advancing cancer research and availability of
treatments. I've specified to the organizers that I want the donations I
help raising to go towards rare cancers, so that more funds are dedicated
to these.

Although I never had a privilege to meet Pieter in person, his work, his
writings and ideas have been a huge source of inspiration for me and I am
trying to build upon his work.

I remember him saying that cancers like his are less known to the western
medical science, so I thought this would be an appropriate action to help
addressing this.

If you want to donate, you can do so at
http://conquercancer.ca/goto/yrashk2017 (the money goes directly to the
organization behind the ride); or you can help by sharing it with your
friends, colleagues and social media.

(Please note that the donations are only tax-deductible for Canadian
residents, but are accepted from residents of any country.)

Yurii.

Final status update (hopefully!), CZMQ 4.0.1 is now out:

https://github.com/zeromq/czmq/releases/tag/v4.0.1

Apologies for the troubles with the draft system, it should be now all
right.
