We are devastated by the tragic death of Martin Schwidefsky who died in an accident last Saturday.

Martin was the most significant contributor to the initial s390 port of the Linux Kernel and later the maintainer of the s390 architecture backend. His technical expertise as well as his mentoring skills were outstanding. Martin was well known for his positive mindset and his willingness to help.

He will be greatly missed.
