<br><br>Hi David<div><br><div>Thank you so much of letting the Chakra team know about this, we have wondered many times since last fall were "FritzvanTom" was. But this news......what a shock to all of us, and please extend our most sincere and deepest condolences to you and his family.</div>
<div><br></div><div><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:15px">Johannes Tröscher worked on almost every aspect of Chakra, his many contributions include a much more user friendly bundle manager interface, he wrote the Welcome Plasmoid anyone new to Chakra would see as a first introduction. Many parts of our installer Tribe got improvements from his code. His active involvement in the KDE web-browser Rekonq, benefited the whole KDE community.</span></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="1"><br></font></div><div><font face="Verdana" size="1">We would like to make an announcement of this terrible news, to let our user base know about this loss. If you could (or wish to) provide a picture, we'd like to use that.</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="1">If you are in agreement, then the team would also like to dedicate our next ISO series (the live environment we release for users to install Chakra on their system) to him, and will use the name "Fritz" for that.</font></div>

<div>He was an open source enthusiast and often told me that he is working on some projects.</div><div>I finally got the guts to do some research about his work and it turns out he worked on the Chakra project. </div><div>
This seems to be his gitorious account: (<a href="https://gitorious.org/~fritzvantom" target="_blank">https://gitorious.org/~fritzvantom</a>).</div><div><br></div><div>This email has two purposes: The first is to inform you (the Chakra-devs) that he is dead; The second is that I am curious about his contributions to your community. The latter might also be interesting for his family.</div>
<div>I am not involved in any open source development and therefore it is hard for me to judge how involved he has been in your project and how valuable he has been to your community. </div><div>Maybe someone of your team can throw some light on this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I did send this mail to some random email addresses from your project page hoping it reaches the right people.</div><div>I (and his family) would be very grateful to get an answer from you about your experiences with Johannes.</div>
<div>Thank you very much. Let's remember him fondly!</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>David Schedl</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div></div></div>
