RIP TTN

TTN was a great Guile hacker, I've learned so much from his code. That's
all I know about him. However, after he passed away, I found other
communities' people mentioned him, then I realized that he was such a
comprehensive hacker.
RIP.
Best regards.

That very sad.
He wasn't that old, was he?
Thien-Thi has been around in the Guile community since the early days.
Best regards,
Mikael
