I too did not know Vipernicus very well, but I am still very sad to hear that he has passed away :( I wish the best to you and your family, Amber, and I hope you can gain the strength to get through these tough times.

I only know vipernicus through his work on kernel patches. And i can't believe that this happened to him. Gentoo community just lost a prominent member.

I'm very sorry and my condolences to you and the family.

My condolences.

I am terribly sorry to hear that Vipernicus has passed on. I wish so very much that things could have come out differently. He seemed like friendly and interesting person. His passing is a loss for everyone.

Hang in there, Amber. I know there are no words for you feel right now.

I'm very sorry and sad to hear about that terrible event.
I didn't know him personally but I saw many of his contributions on the forums.
He was always trying to be helpfull to others and he sure will be missed.

My condolence goes to his whole family.

Rest in Peace, Vipernicus.
