This just in from Dominique Repecaud:

Je viens d'apprendre le décès d'Olivier Paquotte (Etage 34, Soixante
Etages, Idiome 1238, The Infusion, Jagger Naut...)

Accident en voiture samedi

Sad news - Paquotte was a strong, original improviser and a key player in the French scene.

Yep, this is sad news, etage 34 was reall something live. No one here seems to care though...

Here meaning IHM, or France? Neither, perhaps - but it's understandable maybe that his work isn't all that widely known across the Atlantic, where many of the regular posters here are based. Certainly strongly recommended, though.
