NetBSD would like to express our condolences on the passing of Ian Murdock.

He was one of the pillars of open-source software development and distribution, contributing much to the community as a whole. As is the nature of open-source software, ideas and processes are shared, intertwined, and constantly evolving as they are passed back and forth between projects.

We respect, and are grateful for what Ian did during his career.

Regards,
The NetBSD Foundation and developers
