Dear all.<br>
<br>
I am very sad to inform everyone that our friend Didier died last week.<br>
<br>
Early 2015, I asked on the slackware list if brltty could be added in the<b=
r>
installer ; Didier answered promptly that he could do it on <br>
slint. Afterwards, he worked hard so that slint became as accessible as<br>
possible for visually impaired people.<br>
<br>
You all know that all these years, he tried and succeeded to answer as<br>
quickly as possible to our issues and questions.<br>
<br>
He will be irreplaceable.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
<br>
