from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at The
Ohio State University of the sudden death of Eitan Gurari on
June 22.
Gurari was known in the discussion here as the author of tex4ht,
a widely used tool for the translation of LaTeX to HTML and
various XML document types.
I always found him to be most helpful. We shall miss him.

That is indeed very sad to hear . He was always eager to help. I hope his
creation lives on.

This is sad news. tex4ht is a terrific piece of software and Eitan's
maintenance of it was a model of efficiency and courtesy.

This is very sad indeed. TeX4ht has been a mainstay of conversion for
many years and Eitan was always very quick to help.

His quiet and diligent work has made a real contribution to our
community, which continues after his death. He will be missed.
I very much hope that, in time, people and resources will emerge so that
his creation tex4ht will continue to prosper.
Sad news indeed.
