Hi Chris, I wouldn't make any assumptions about the release of the next version of Talks being a long time. Remember, Marcus is still very much alive, and I sincerely hope he will keep Talks alive for all of us. He is another brilliant programmer, and alongside Torsten, he is dynamite!

I'm going to post on Facebook and, if I can find it, retweet it on Twitter. This is a very sad loss indeed and up to now Talks 5 could be the last version to be made for some time. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Bardia Zakeri" <bardiazakeri@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 6:44 PM To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Sad news concerning Torsten Brand, lead developer for talks > is not funn to hear about this. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 6:43 PM > Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Sad news concerning Torsten Brand, lead developer > for talks > > >> Oh dear!
