Hubert Léonard
Hubert Léonard (7 April 1819 – 6 May 1890) was a famous Belgian violinist, born at Liège.
 His earliest preparatory training was given by a prominent teacher of the time, August Rouma, after which he entered the Paris Conservatoire in 1836.
 There he studied for three years under François Antoine Habeneck.
 In 1844 he started his extended tours which established his reputation as one of the greatest of virtuosos. From 1848 to 1867 he held the position of principal professor of violin playing at the Brussels Conservatoire, having succeeded the celebrated Charles de Bériot.
 Owing to ill health, he resigned and settled in Paris, where he spent the rest of his life, and where he gave lessons.
 Among his notable students were Alfred De Sève, Martin Pierre Marsick, Henri Marteau, Henry Schradieck, and César Thomson.
 He wrote a significant pedagogical work entitled "Ecole Léonard". Peter de Ru

Fyre, formerly de Jong Explorer, is a cross-platform tool for producing artwork based on histograms of iterated chaotic functions.
 It implements the Peter de Jong map in a fixed function pipeline through either a GTK GUI frontend, or a command line facility for easier rendering of high-resolution, high quality images.
 The program was renamed from de Jong Explorer to Fyre simply because "<nowiki>'It wasn't taken yet'</nowiki>" and so that in the future, it could support more functions than just the standard Peter de Jong map.
 Fyre features a sidebar on the left to which the user can input the required variables and on the right is displayed the result of the equation. Peter de Koning
