Hello Yaovi,

Apologies for bad writing your name in a previous message.

This sad news about the death of Jon Postel is also a warning. For as
eminent personality like him, it is appropriate to be dismayed.
I said warning because for 30 years he has made the Internet what is
written today among the great revolutions in the world.
thank for sharing  this information.
