To whom it may concern.

December 25th Tom Tweedy, the founder of Dip2000 and someone who has been active in the Diplomacy hobby for decades, passed away.

The message that was posted on the Dip2000-board:

********************

It is my sad duty to inform you all of the death of Tom Tweedy.

Tom died this afternoon (Dec 25th) at home with his family present.

His death is a sad loss for the hobby in general and for the Dip2000
community in particular.

Details of his funeral will be available later, anyone who wishes to
have details please send an email to funeral(at)dip2000.com and I'll send
details as soon as I have them.

Anyone who wishes to send a message to his family should email the
message to memorial(at)dip2000.com, these will be printed and passed on.

His widow has expressed a desire for anyone who wishes to attend his
funeral, I will give her the numbers who contact me so she has some
idea how many will be there.

Finally, please feel free to pass on this news to anyone in the hobby
who may have known him. Over the years Tom has been a big part of the
hobby and has crossed paths with many people.

The Dip2000 site will continue to function as normal, after his
illness some years ago Tom and I took steps to ensure that the site
could function without him and in the past months since his illness
last year we've modified the site again to ensure it would continue
after his death. It will carry on as was his wish as his lasting memorial.
