It's hard to know what to say. Most of my (comparatively small) involvement with git post-dates Shawn. It's always a bit strange to contribute to projects and feel like you're getting to know people you've never met except through their work and E-Mail correspondence. I've met many of you, but never met Shawn, but feel like I know him from all his work for which I and others are thankful for. I'm sorry he's gone, and have all the best hopes for his family and children. They don't want any flowers sent over to them, but I wonder if we couldn't make some sort of tribute to Shawn at the upcoming developer meeting in Barcelona (and find some way to have remote people contribute to it). E.g. a short video/audio of different people in the dev community sharing some story about Shawn, or a written list of memories contributed by and signed by various people. I don't know what that would look like exactly, but I think it would be a good thing for his family and especially for his children when they're grown to remember him by, to know that their father contributed to these software projects with people all over the world, and that all these people appreciated his work and him personally. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

I like this direction (though like you, I'm not sure exactly what it should look like). I'm not sure what kind of video presence GitHub will have at the contrib summit, but I'll see about getting some interview footage there. Doing something written, though, may make it easier for remote people to collaborate. -Peff ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

Since I suspect many people will want to participate in text form that wouldn't via video, here's an idea (not mutually exclusive with the video). We gather text from people involved in git about Shawn. This gets added to a git repo, we fast-export it, have it printed as hardcover in fixed-width font, in "a format your dad made". ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

On behalf of git's NonStop platform team, ITUGLIB, we want to express our sorrow for the loss of Shawn to the community, his friends, colleagues, and family.

Unfortunately I just learned that we (GitHub) are not actually sending video folks to Barcelona this year. So we (Git) are on our own for recording anything. Certainly we can record something with one of our cameras, though I wonder if it might be simpler to just have people record themselves and send it to Chris, then. -Peff ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

I know Shawn has not been all that active on this list in the past few years, so many may not know how active he has been behind the scenes: - serving on the Git project leadership committee - managing many of the contributors whose names you see here daily - working on other Git ecosystem projects that aren't on this list (like JGit!)

I'm very proud to have had Shawn's leadership and guidance while working on this project. I would not be the engineer I am today without his guidance. He was always quick to drop what he was doing to help and despite not having worked on the project himself in a while, he was able to answer, in detail, any technical questions I had. He's left a rather large void on our team, and he will be sorely missed. > > - working on other Git ecosystem projects that aren't on this list > (like JGit!) > > Over the many years, I've found him consistently smart, hard-working, > funny, and just overall pleasant to work with.
