Roy Rosenzweig (1950-2007)

For some reason I never had a chance to meet Roy Rosenzweig in person, but I appreciated his scholarship, communicated with him by email a couple of times to discuss wikipedia, and heard lots about him from his admirers, of whom there were many. His was a very strong and very important voice in our digital humanities community. I also want to say that his closest friends who supported him to the end can be absolutely certain that their love and concern meant everything to him. I know that for a fact!
