The company Stefan founded is just 5km (around 3 miles) away from where I live. I have friends who either worked or still work there. I also met a bunch of the folks at InnoQ over the years and they are a great team.

Whenever people or his employees talked about Stefan it was always in a positive way. He must have been a great guy. RIP Stefan and my condolences to the family!

I always thought he had a cracking voice, he was frequently on various podcasts and I reckon he had one of the best voices for it. Rich deep tones work well in radio and podcast.

I'm sorry to read about this, far far too young.

I didn't know Stefan well but had some conversations on LinkedIn. Really cool dude. He had a lot of influence in the API ecosystem with presentations on REST, Hypermedia and such. rip

Oh, this is sad. I had the pleasure of meeting Stefan a few times. Always a joy, always an interesting, hostorically wellfounded perspective on the issues of the day.

Stefan was a kind and generous man and I’m sure many of us in the industry have many fond memories of him. For me personally, it’s working together on InfoQ editorial duties when it was in its early years. RIP Stefan!!!
