That's very sad news. He will be missed greatly. RIP Jarober. Phil Le 19 avr. 2014 14:33, "kilon alios" <kilon.alios@gmail.com> a écrit :
I did not know him and I am new to smalltalk but I loved his podcasts and screencasts, simple , elegant , no need to impress exactly the way I like it. Always sad to see someone go, my condolences to his family , I am sure he was quite the man to be around.

For those who haven't heard on Facebook, James Robertson passed away suddenly on Thursday April 14, 2014. James was a power house of information for Smalltalk and worked furiously through the years to promote it through his blog and podcasts. James was an employee of ParcPlace through the ParcPlace/Digitalk merger and through the move to Cincom. When he left CIncom in 2010, he became an independent contractor. He was always an early adopter of technology. He jumped into the blog scene when it wasn't yet a scene and started recording podcasts when podcasts were still new. Over the years, he recorded thousands of podcasts, screencasts, videos of conference talks and interviews making them accessible to everyone by podcast channels, youtube and through his blog.

I'm waiting to hear details about a memorial service to be held later this week.
For all of us who were touched by his life, we say farewell to a good friend.
