Howdy all,
I wrote up a little RIP page with some pictures and video from Pd cons 2011 and 2016. A unique member of the community indeed:
Ed Kelly and I bonded over computer music and a silly sense of humor. Although I only hung out with him a few times in person and we mainly communicated online over the years, it felt like I had always known him. I know things were not always easy for him, but he would push through with creative energy. He will be missed in the Pure Data community, through which I met him. Condolences to his friends and family in the UK and around the world.

@Alex: Is there a condolences page to write to, specifically not on Facebook, etc? Maybe we can all write something to show his touch beyond in-person relationships.
It's a great shame, I remember him with great joy, I still remember the anecdote about the dog. A great guy. :/ Jos?
@Jos?: What was the anecdote?

Tehomas Bow on facebook gave us the bad news. He had a stroke and fell, got injured and passed away this friday. He leaves us soon, just before turning 50. Ed was quite a fun character, I loved him, he'll be missed. Rest in Peace.

Nice and Beatiful Dan. I posted a little something on instagram and facebook as well that I'd also like to share with you.

that's mark, me and Ed, at PdCon16, but this was also my birthday and this was a birthday pic with my Pd buddies, we went out later to celebrate my 39th birthday.

Back in 2009 when we hosted the convention in Brazil, Ed was bitten by a tropical spider and his hand got quite swollen, I hope we had given him a nicer welcome to the jungle...
I met him in 2007 at the PdCon in Montreal and loved him right away. I guess we also bonded over a silly sense of humor.
When I found out my nephew was autistic, I reached Ed for guidance and help, cause I knew his son was also on the spectrum, he was really nice and gave me a lot of attention and information!
He was the life of the party and he'll be missed.
RIP "Sir" Edward Kelly, as I used to call him.
cheers

Sorry, I missed this. I had posted your nice entry on the Pd facebook page, where the said news was given.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/puredata
this is his facebook profile https://www.facebook.com/ed.kelly.35574
And this is Tehomas, who gave the news https://www.facebook.com/tehomas I know he'd be happy to forward messages to the family, I had also sent yout nice post to him via a direct message
While we're at it, I fear if his work eventually vanishes from the online world. We should download, keep it and host it somewhere to be safe maybe?
cheers

I wanna contribute to this kinds of nice things obviously.
I have a git server where you have to register: https://git.nubegris.com.ar/user/sign_up it's a low power machine next to my room. (i do regular backups).
just create a public repo with anything for the backup (music, patches, etc). this is nice as git repos can be mirrored, migrated and so on.
I can't really guaranty it wont fail at some point so it will be good if there's a mirror somewhere.
15GB i can handle. if more is needed will see how we manage it.
there is also an apache web server on that machine. not sure if there's a need to stream tracks from it as bandcamp already is handling that.
I'm glad to be part of such a nice list.
let me know what you think.
