To those who knew her...I thought I would mention that Jude has passed away.
To those who did not know her, she was the woman who coined the phrase cypherpunk. Jude was also an editor at Mondo 2000, among many other things. http://abcnews.go.com/sections/tech/WiredWomen/wiredwomen000223.html
She had been fighting cancer and was losing her battle; last night she embraced the inevitable by taking her own life.
In all honesty, I never met her, though I had often heard of her. It strikes me that she finished her life the way she had always seemed to live it - an empowered woman.
Condolences to her friends and family.
