Hello all,

I just received this message announcing the death of Roger Silverstone.
As you probably know he was central in the development of domestication
theory.  I was lucky enough to know him via the COST program and I will
remember his generous comments, his willingness to develop ideas and his
insight.

Dear colleagues
