This is very sad news. Jim was a very strong supporter of the IETF and IPv6.

Very much a loss. Quite a colorful personality. I will never forget his mike time at the Danver's IETF in his 'nam fatigues.

When he wanted to make a point, he did not pull any punches. And the few times he was shown his was not the position that was going to move forward, he got with everyone else and made things happen.


Jim served the community as:
- IPv6 Forum Chief Technology Officer
- Chair of the North American IPv6 Task Force
- Active IETF contributor, including member of the IPng Directorate

We will miss him.

Dear IPv6-ers,
Jim Bound passed away yesterday. Jim was only 58 years old.
Jim was a symbol of integrity and professionalism.
He made a profound impact on our industry and everyone who worked with him.
I am very fortunate to have been able to also call Jim friend.
Very very sad time,
Yanick
