I believe the article could do with a few words of condolence from phoronix, too.

At first it looked a bit sensationalist to me, that's probably not how the post is meant.

I fully agree!
Just providing the facts is not really appropriate IMHO.

Every lost is a big lost.

My condolences to his family, friends and coworkers.

This is not the first time a Linux developer lost a life while bicycling.

Remember; when bicycling, always wear a protective helmet!

No!!!! This is really sad and unfortunate news for the whole community.

We can never replace the contribution this person made to us -- his unique knowledge and abilities and efforts. But I hope that his life work will live on in the people who use his driver.

Phoronix: Intel Loses One Of Their Linux Driver Developers

Several Phoronix readers have written in that Eugeni Dodonov, a former Mandriva developer who since last year has been working for the Intel Open-Source Technology Center on their Linux graphics driver, lost his life this weekend...

Horrific.
His family and friends have my condolences.

The title of the article almost implies the loss of development is the main sadness here...

My condolences to his family and friends.

I never really had any contact with him, but certainly read some of his posts around here and saw his impact on Mesa.
