Jos De Roo said: "This is very sad news and so prematurely leaving behinda wife, three kids under 9 and a nearly finished PhD thesis. Tears come in the eyes when reflecting about that ... Many condolences to Henry's family." I'm repeating myself when I say how shocked and saddened I am.+1 for any memorial, if I have a vote. Anyway, you have my sentiment. I want to ask a couple of things that people may not know the answers to, may not want to share here, may not think it is my business or may not want to offend his family.The above is a bit comprehensive, but you must get what I mean. Has Dame Wendy Hall been informed? Can it be shared what actually happened? Again, I am so very sad about this. If I explain by saying I referenced by re-reading his write-ups on Mathematics Stack Exchange and Theoretical Computer Science about some 10,000 times, people will understand.EXAMPLES OF CO-IMPLICATION (A.K.A CO-EXPONENTIAL) WHAT LOGIC CORREPONDS VIA CURRY-HOWARD TO A MONAD? (YES, THE TYPO IS ORIGINAL. OR IS IT A TYPO?) To tell the truth, I haven't finished reading yet.

I met Henry over 15 years ago as the WebID work was just forming -- back then, and to this day, we were all trying to figure out a way to re-decentralize the Web and empower people to control more of their digital existence. I remember countless discussions with Henry about the philosophy of the Web and what it should become to better help society. Engaging in a discussion with Henry about these topics was never a shallow dive; the thought and care he took at analysing not only what he was saying, but what you were attempting to argue, demanded the same thought and care when engaging with him. He made us all deeper thinkers and communicators, which is one of the things he valued most. He cared deeply about what we were all building here. He was generous with his time, curiosity, and passion. I hope we can all live up to carry on what he shared with all of us over these many years. -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. https://www.digitalbazaar.com/
