+\secstar{Anivar's email to Swathanthra Malayalam Computing}
+{\vskip 2pt}
+\begin{english}
+Yes, I am writing this with tears. He was a close friend,
+co-traveler, and colleague in SMC.
+
+He was a student in IIIT hyderabad, working on CVIT lab, in the team
+to develop a malayalam OCR. He was under the treatment for Leukemia in
+CMC Vellore for past 2 years. He was very active contributor to
+Swathanthra Malayalam Computing's projects and various other FOSS
+projects such as pypdflib, silpa project, etc even from his hospital
+bed. In addition he used to write articles in malayal.am on various
+topics. In FEC also he was quite active and contributed to various
+discussion threads. He was one among SMC's Google Summer of Code
+candidates in 2007. His contribution to standardization discussions
+such as critique to International Domain Names Standard for Malayalam,
+Inscript 2 Draft Keyboard Standard, etc was also commendable.
+
+He was always available on google chat when he is in the intervals
+between treatments. We used to talk a lot about various contemporary
+topics. Jinesh was working on a paper about pitfalls in Biometric
+standards UID adopted, and he used to send a lot of contemporary
+research papers on biometrics to me.
+
+Our last chat (around sep 4th) was about planning get together, when
+he reaches home after treatments.
+Whenever we asks about his treatment details he used to show this XKCD comic
+\url{http://xkcd.com/931/}
+
+When he was in MES , he was the organiser of many FOSS activities in
+their campus and he was an initiator for Swatantra software user group
+Malappuram.
