It is with great sadness that I announce to you that Giuseppe Venturini (@ggventurini), open source developer and hobbyist, has passed away on the 21st of September 2015.

Giuseppe worked for many years at CERN, as an electronics engineer. He was a passionate hobbyist and an open source enthusiast. He has started many open source projects over the years, more remarkably python-deltasigma and akhab. I had the pleasure to meet him and, although we were not close friends, I know he was appreciated by everyone as a kind person.

I didn't have any contact with Giuseppe over the last months, so, it's hard to know how he would like us to remember him. However, I am sure he would appreciate some form of contribution to cancer research:

This is very sad :( I looked into ahkab (PSpice like software but in python) project few months ago and it was very nicely done.
