              <td align="justify" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">����<span
                class="c2"><b>Werner Icking</b></span> founded the GMD Music
                Archive of scores, software, email, and other music-related
                items, and diligently maintained it for the benefit of any
                internet traveler who might happen by. Some visitors returned
                again and again, over time forming a coherent little community
                with Werner as patriarch, a community bound together by common
                interest in creating beautifully typeset pages of music. The
                group was devastated on February 13, 2001, to learn from an
                email posting that five days earlier, Werner had died while
                cycling home from work. The mailing list suddenly became a
                memorial service, where dozens of his friends stood and tried
                to make sense of this tragedy. Hardly anyone had met him in
                person, but everyone had stories about how Werner had
                personally and unselfishly inspired them to do something a
                little better. And everyone realized clearly, from the number
                and sincerity of those elegies, that Werner's true gift was
                his ability to make all his correspondents feel like personal
                friends, though they may be thousands of miles away, and their
                question might be one he had answered for others many times
                before.<br>
                <span>�� </span> It is altogether fitting that this
                continuation of the GMD archive now be dedicated to Werner
                Icking. His spirit runs through every part of it, and will
                continue to do so as long as it stands. In his wonderful
                scores of the complete unaccompanied violin works of Bach, he
                captured Bach's intentions by meticulously following Bach's
                page layouts. His good-natured postings to the mailing list
                are here for all to see. And while he didn't serve as
                principal developer of any of the software packages, he did
                contribute significant pieces of coding to MusiXTeX, and
                served tirelessly as motivator, beta tester, and peerless
                bug-finder for PMX. Those who knew him were privileged, and
                all who visit here owe him a debt of gratitude.</td>
