We have received the sad news that Didier Spaier, maintainer of the blind-friendly Slackware-based Slint distribution, has recently passed
away. Philippe Delavalade, who posted the announcement to the
Slint mailing list, said:

Early 2015, I asked on the slackware list if brltty could be added
in the installer; Didier answered promptly that he could do it on
slint. Afterwards, he worked hard so that slint became as accessible
as possible for visually impaired people.

You all know that all these years, he tried and succeeded to answer
as quickly as possible to our issues and questions.

He will be irreplaceable.
