We are saddened to report that Bill Hall passed away in July 2012. A brilliant software pioneer and internationalization evangelist, he was also a pilot and Mensa member.

John O'Conner wrote, "Bill is the one, the only one that I thought knew all there is to know."

Bill will be remembered by us here at MultiLingual not only as a long-time author and editorial board member, but also as a gracious and generous person – and as a friend who will be missed.
