We have received the sad news that Tomáš Kalibera, a member of the
RÿProject core team, has
passed away
after a short illness.

A friend who knew him well wrote to me: he was very happy, and
his work fulfilled him. That is, perhaps, the best thing one can
say about a life in open source - that the work mattered, that it
reached millions, and that the person who did it found meaning in it.

Kalibera was mentioned in this 2019 article about C
programs passing strings to Fortran subroutines. He will be greatly
missed.
