I was young at that time and it was my first visit to Oxford University; I was nervous, but Sebastian made me feel very at ease :-) On 16 March 2016 at 16:00, David Carlisle d.p.carlisle@xxxxxxxxx <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I am sorry to report that Sebastian Rahtz has died after illness. > > I have known Sebastian since the early 1990s, first via TeX and then > XML and XSL.
