Jan was a very skilled programmer and his work helped a lot of people. His sources are a mine of tricks and hints for sure. Maybe we should do something for his memory, maybe dedicating him our compos, or something like this
personally my first meet with opengl was in his great website
Sulaco was a great reference, another brain away ....
Current (and lifetime) project: FAR Colony

Wow, has it been 9 years already?!
I bet he would have loved all the things we get to play with now.
RIP Jan
btw, we do have the Jan Horn Award during the PGD Annual
I was thinking of doing a commemoration event for him... People submit a graphical demo that simply show us something really stunning for Jan. Examples, water effects (waterfall, drops, falling rain) snow, fire, fire works or something else that creates a mini spectacle worthy of the late Jan Horn.
What do you guys think? We can set the deadline for the anniversary of his passing. Give everyone a month or so to create something...
