Mark Finlay passed away peacefully at home on Friday 9th January 2004.
Mark was the driving force behind the creation of the GNOME Users Board, where he helped numerous people learn to use GNOME. He was also a contributor to Rhythmbox, Gossip and numerous other GNOME projects. To quote Jeff Waugh "Mark Finlay was young, eager, furiously energetic and just heading into university - where I'm sure he would have blossomed into a great GNOME and Free Software hacker."

Re: Mark Finlay passes away

I'm really sorry for his death. He was really cool guy. But I really don't know what was the cause of his death, what is this peacefully thing, he wasn't old nor did he had cancer so if anybody knows what happend to him pls. let us know, beacuse I really got a feeling of some kind of conspiracy of MS. It was too much of such sad news in the past. We will miss you and your work. God bless you Mark.
