While I realize that many of us are on both lists, I am forwarding this sad
news for those who might not have seen it via the W3C list or twitter.

Dr. Alex's work in the IETF and his efforts promoting WebRTC were a small
part of a rich, but sadly short, life.  He is and will be missed.

Dear all,

As some of you will already know, Alexandre Gouaillard, a long-time and
key contributor to our group and to the WebRTC ecosystem in general
passed away last week.
  https://twitter.com/rtc_cosmo/status/1381671140884643841

Alexandre's passion for WebRTC and his multiple skills were an
inspiration for many of us in pushing this important technology forward,
and he was a great character to hang around. He will be dearly missed.

Dom
