Hi,

Yes, that's true, but that doesn't mean my praise of his qualities is any less 
valid.  It only took one listen to a podcast to gather that from the way he 
spoke.   You can tell these sorts of things just by listening to a person, and 
Thorsten had enthusiasm for his job and the people he served in spades.

Isn't that because you only recently joined the Talks list?

Hi,

Thanks for the news, albeit very tragic.  I only ever heard the name in
connection with the Talks 5 demo podcast, but he certainly came across as a
man who was enthusiastic about his job and who genuinely wanted to see
advancements in innovation both technologically and with how the visually
impaired community does things together with our sighted colleagues.

I’m sure he will be much missed, and my condolences to his family and close
ones.

Subject: [access-uk] Sad news concerning talks developer, Torsten Brand

Hi Everyone.
 
This will be sad news to any user of the talks software and a tragic loss
for the accessible phone users community generally.  According to reports,
Torsten Brand, lead developer for Talks died last night from complications
during a Hernia operation.  Information is scarce at the moment, but
doubtless there will be a press release in the upcoming future and I will of
course pass this on as soon as I hear anything.
 
All the best, Ibrahim.
