Obituary

• Sad news again in IBO: Andreas Ehn, former Swedish coordinator and enthusiast organizer of IBO 1999 (Uppsala), passed away on December 4, 2011, aged 82. We present his wife and children our condolences. Those coordinators who knew him will remember his kindness, his gentle smile, his friendly humour and his - very didactic - passion for spiders.
