nice writeup by Mr. Cerf:

I was not fortunate enough to have known Mr. Postel, but I have
developed a deep posthumous respect for the work he did from listening
to what others have had to say about him, and from using (and
benefiting from) his legacy on a daily basis. He was not alone among
the pioneers who enabled the Internet to become what it is today, but
there weren't many who made such a significant contribution.

thanks for the writeup, Vint.
