I have worked together with Marek on a couple of scripts in the past, 
and we kept contact.  To the best of my knowledge, Marek unfortunately 
left these mortal realms in October 2017.  He was only 49 years old.

Marek was suffering from several life-threatening medical issues, and it 
had already been a close call a couple of times.  He was still under 
medical treatment for a blood clot in his left lung during my last 
communications with him ─ he even kept in touch with me while he was at 
the hospital.  However, the blood thinners they gave him had some very 
nasty side effects, and presumably that would have been the cause of 
death.

Don't believe anything Snit says, by the way.  Apart from being a troll 
who's been bullying GNU/Linux users for well over 15 years already, he's 
also a pathological liar and a sociopath.  I've had my own dealings with 
him in the (by now luckily distant) past.
