Xenomai project mourns Gilles Chanteperdrix
The Xenomai project is mourning Gilles Chanteperdrix, a longtime maintainer of the realtime framework, who recently passed away. In the announcement, Philippe Gerum writes: "Gilles will forever be remembered as a true-hearted man, a brilliant mind always scratching beneath the surface, looking for elegance in the driest topics, never jaded from such accomplishment. According to Paul Valéry, “death is a trick played by the inconceivable on the conceivable”. Gilles’s absence is inconceivable to me, I can only assume that for once, he just got rest from tirelessly helping all of us."
