Rob Barnett

Dear Café-denizens

The email on another list, below, has announced the news that Robert Barnett
has died. Those of you who are forms enthusiasts will know him as a hugely
influential person in the world of forms, and a tremendous evangelist for
usability.

I last saw him in Canberra in November last year, when he already knew that
he had terminal throat cancer. He was a lifelong non-smoker and believed the
cause to be dental x-rays. By that time, he could no longer travel but
continued to work as hard as he could, updating his blog until quite
recently.

I just heard today that Rob Barnett passed away yesterday. He had been quite
ill for some time. He was an avid participant on Formspace, prolific author,
Jo Warner award winner, a top forms professional and a good friend. He will
be missed.

I will post any additional information on Formspace as it becomes available.
