In memoriam of Karsten Loesing (Tor blog)
The Tor project is mourning Karsten Loesing, who died on December 18. "Karsten was part of the Tor community for 13 years and an amazing, smart, thoughtful, and gentle person who has touched us all. Over the course of these years we saw him not only grow as a colleague at Tor but as a father to his family. His positive, attentive, and kind presence helped us grow as people as well.Dr. Karsten Loesing joined Tor in 2007 as a Google Summer of Code student to work on Distributed Tor Directory, and earned his PhD in Computer Science at Germany's University of Bamberg in 2009 on a Tor-related topic, 'Distributed Storage for Tor Hidden Service Descriptors [PDF]'."
