[mesa-users] Doug Engelbart

[Bill Paxton]

In case you missed the news, Doug Engelbart died recently.
In case you don't know who Doug Engelbart is, you really need to read this.
It captures who Doug was better than anything else I've seen.
In retrospect, it was an amazing piece of luck for me to have worked with him.
At the time, I had only a vague understanding of what he was trying to create.
But now we are all immersed in it -- or at least in the small parts of it that were
picked up first by Xerox PARC and then by Apple.  Thanks, Doug.
