I know nothing about her work with ASF, but I knew her briefly when she lived in Portland. She was one of the organizers who create those great tech events this city is known for. I used to attend the weekly brewpup hackathons she organized, and which are still going strong.
I seem to recall that her day job at the time was writing docs for Eucalyptus.
We weren't close, but I can say that she was an interesting, smart, talented, complicated person. Her loss saddens me deeply.
