(forw) Debian Project mourns the loss of Clytie Siddall



Hello fellow Debian i18n people,

This is in case some of you do not read or follow debian-news. I
originally passed the news in the DD private mailing list and relayed
to her husband many testimonies from Debian community members about
Clytie's work.

I suppose that many of you folks have witnessed Clytie's longstanding
commitment to i18n and l10n as well. For me, it was more than 10 years
that I was working with her and I feel like I lost a close friend even
though we never met.

The Debian Project sadly announces that it has lost a member of its
community. Clytie Siddall passed recently after a long battle with
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Clytie was a contributor of Vietnamese translations to Debian and other
projects for many years. Within Debian she worked on translations for
the installer, dpkg, apt and various documentation. She also contributed
translations within the GNOME community and many other projects. Clytie
was a GNOME foundation contributor.

The Debian Project honours her good work and strong dedication to Debian
and Free Software. Clytie's contributions will not be forgotten, and the
high standards of her work will continue to serve as an inspiration to
others.
