Didn't even know he was unwell! Quite a shock, really.

This is horrible, awful news. Bram knew all the answers, was eager to
help everyone, guided the project well, and he was always nice. What a
gaping hole his loss leaves in free software.

This is terrible news, and not just because of Vim itself, of course. He was a unique and kind person, and I will miss him both for his effect on my life and for his own importance. I really feel personally broken over this, as I'm sure many others here do as well.

Bram's last words (on vim-use):

I don't think we can fix this in Vim.  The error is valid, if we skip it
then mistakes will go unnoticed.  With Vim 9 script we want to find more
errors, not less.  So long as they are valid errors.

An idea we can take in a much more general sense, I believe.

Very sad news.

One of the best open source developers, he has given so much to all the community.

Respect.

Said news ideed. Bram was a genial UI desinger, and Vim's
interface is polished to excellence.

Great projects never die with their maintainers, even if
they become orphaned. I am happy user of Video Display
Editor[1] and other great disconinued software. Like gold,
it does not fade.
