Hi, I'm sure most of you might have already heard about it, Aaron Swartz, hacker, writer and activist committed suicide on Jan 11, 2013.
http://boingboing.net/2013/01/12/rip-aaron-swartz.html Aaron was a great Python programmer. He created web.py, a web framework in Python, Infogami a wiki software and many other tools. He co-authored RSS 1.0 specifications when he as 13 and worked with John Gruber in creating Markdown. The PyCon India 2011 website is still running on Infogami. He is not just a programmer, a great activist too. He is the founder od demand progress, an organization that played crucial role in stoping the SOPA Act. Aaron's death is a great loss to the whole world. May his soul rest in peace.
