- aidenn0 8y agoErik was (he has passed away) fairly obnoxious. Like makes Linux Torvalds look like a diplomat obnoxious. e.g. Naggum on XML: http://harmful.cat-v.org/software/xml/s-exp_vs_XML http://harmful.cat-v.org/software/xml/s-exp_vs_XML

I met him once IRL (as did many Lispers when Franz paid his way to the Lisp conference in Berkeley in (can't remember which year. PG was a keynote speaker and McCarthy was holding court in the hallway.) Erik seemed perfectly polite in person. To me anyway.
