With great sadness we learned yesterday of the peaceful passing of @gkellogg last Saturday.
In the last 14 years, as a W3C Invited Expert, Gregg co-edited 9 standards and a dozen other specs. He also implemented them all and contributed test suites that #w3c groups are still using.
His implication in the JSON-LD Working Group, that he co-chaired, was instrumental to the success of JSON-LD.
For all this, but also his friendliness and good nature, he will be dearly missed.

Sad news: Gregg Kellogg passed away from Coralie Mercier on 2025-09-11 ([email protected] from September 2025)

@w3c @gkellogg I didn't know Gregg well and only met him once, but almost every day I look at JSON-LD and I am impacted by his work. He was a friend to many of the efforts I support every day. RIP tech hero.
