Dear all
The first obituaries have begun to appear for Mary Lee Berners-Lee,
formerly Mary Lee Woods, one of the earliest Ferranti programmers, who
died on 29 November of last year:

She is the subject of (to my knowledge) two valuable oral history
interviews, Janet Abbate's of 2001, and Tom Lean's of 2010 alongside her
husband Conway Berners-Lee:
