Branden's a good guy (Score:3, Interesting)
It's not like we've maintained any sort of contact over the years, but he was a really good guy when I knew him personally. Smart, eclectic, and funny as hell. Fun to have over for dinner, which was a common occurance back then.
I don't know whether he keeps tabs on Slashdot (not that he'd know who the hell I was anyway), but a major kudos to a good guy I knew long ago! I'd be lucky to some day earn a fraction of the respect that this guy has.

I'm concerned that sarge isn't imminent but at the moment I'm going to wait and see (well, do more than that, do my part with bug reports/fixes etc.)
