Professor Sergio Servetto died on Tuesday in a tragic plane crash. It’s a real shock, and great loss. I had just talked to him at ISIT in Nice. He was very active in getting the IT student society going and will be missed greatly. I was unsure if I should link to the news here, but I think that there are people who read this blog, knew him, and would want to know.

UPDATE : The IT Student Society has more information.
