Michiel van der Kolk, a.k.a HCl, rest in peace!

Michiel van der Kolk, also known as HCl on the rockbox IRC channel, died yesterday night at his apartment in the University Campus of Twente in Holland at the age of 23.
The cause of death seems to be "acute ulcer hemorrhage".
HCl joined the rockbox project around 2004 in November when the iriver port started. His contribution to Rockbox was spread in many areas and among others he is responsible for the Rockboy emulator and the previous tag database system.
Our deepest condolences to his family and friends.
The Rockbox Community will always remember HCl, rest in peace...

May the earth be soft as feathers for Michiel.
Btw, XavierGr, your avatar coupled with this message looks especially creepy. Not that it's anything bad… Just creepy.

My Condolences to his freinds, family and class mates.
It's verry sad news also a big loss for us all, as far as I know he's a good programmer, now there are even less programmers from the netherlands working in rockbox
I Think he deserved a special place in the Rockbox credits! But who am I to think that.
Dear Michiel,
Rest in peace!
