Dead... HCl...
Bagder:
Hello,
HCl appeared in the #rockbox IRC channel one day and was eager to help us advance the project. He grabbed issues he enjoyed, and in particular we will remember him for his tireless and speedy work on getting the Rockboy emulator to run on the iriver H100.
He also worked on improving the tag database system in Rockbox, and he added new capabilities that weren't previously possible like rating sounds and keep track of the number of times songs were played. He also wrote a java program for generating the database on host. (He built this upon the original database code/work written by Zagor and myself. In later days that whole subsystem was replaced by the current Tagcache/Database.)
HCl is still very much present in the stats for the IRC channel, as one of the top-10 talkers during the project's entire life-time.
He will be missed.
Crunchward:
HCl Was a good friend of mines. I met him through Furcadia where he spread his programming knowledge to everyone and worked very hard in helping everyone there.
He made a website with a few things he made to help the people of Furcadia.

He also has a lot of his work on www.heroinpuppy.com
Its not loading at the moment for me but I thought you might want to see more of the work he did. Rest in Peace, HCl. You'll be deeply missed by me and many others.
Loved in Life and loved equilly in the afterlife.

This is a link to more posts. He was on the online community Furcadia a lot, had many friends whom he loved and who loved him. He is a great loss to our community and we can't believe he's never logging on again...
