Peter van Aarle - IAFD

Cut and pasted from rame.
It is with great sadness that I post this.
Peter van Aarle, curator of the Internet Adult Film Database (IAFD) and
co-founder of rec.arts.movies erotica (RAME), passed away on Sunday,
September 18, 2005, after suffering a heart attack at his home in The
Hague, Holland. He was 42. Details of a memorial service are not yet
known. Details will be posted at http://www.iafd.com as they become
known.
Peter started the IAFD "back in 1981/82 when I started watching porn
movies (back then my hometown still had a cinema which showed porn
movies, and only porn movies by the way, and that's where I went)."
The site came on-line in its present incarnation and its present address
in 1999, and he explained his goal for the site in an e-mail: "I
basically want the IAFD to be the definitive porn movie database on the
web. I've spent the past 18 years compiling this data, and I want all of
the credit
"
The credit is all his.
The IAFD will continue, in his memory. Volunteers have begun assembling
updates. It will take us a little time to ramp up and try to fill the
void left by Peter, but we promise to do our best.
