Dear community! Many of you will have already heard the sad news of Daniel passing away on monday. The academic and the kernel communities have published an obituary for Daniel on LWN: https://lwn.net/Articles/979912/ On behalf of the scheduler and real-time community, I want to ask everyone for the time being to slow down the patches directed to all the people in the scheduler, real-time and wider community who have lost a close friend, so they have time and space to grieve. Daniel's latest contribution, the deadline server has been put on hold too and will be worked on when everyone has come to terms with this heart breaking situation. Urgent things will be dealt with, but might eventually need a nudge. Thanks in advance for your understanding and respect! Thomas
