As someone who burned a lot of CDs on Linux on the 90s, you bet i recognize that name, and didn't hear this news.

- mauvehaus 4y agoI didn't mention it there, but I was actually responsible for some pax format related work many years back and reached out to him with a question pertaining to his star implementation. He had strong feelings about his star being the star and an unrelated star archiving tool needing to be renamed. Something I was in no position to do or advocate for. I no longer remember if we actually discussed the technical matter or not at any point. I was wondering if mention of him would pop up in the comments since he wrote a tar (and possibly pax, I no longer remember) implementation.
