Wow, that is sad. I remember talking to him (as "PerlJam") on IRC and
just remembered his long absence yesterday. He was a fun person to chat with.
RIP.

I'll see what I can do about adopting some of his modules and donating to his
family.

Regards,

Shlomi Fish

P.S: there are some excerpts of IRC conversations with him (and with other
people) here if anyone is interested -
