The Strait of Hormoz (Hormuz) gets its name from an ancient kingdom. Hormuz was a wealthy port city on the Persian mainland. In the 13th century, fleeing Mongol invaders, the city's ruler made a strategic decision to relocate the entire capital to a barren offshore island "New Hormuz." This small island kingdom grew incredibly wealthy as a fortified tollgate for merchants traveling between India, the Middle East, and East Africa. Since the island completely dominated the local shipping routes, sailors and merchants began referring to waterway as the Strait of Hormuz. The Portuguese conquered the island in 1507 to control the spice trade, adopted the name, establishing it permanently on the map.

Rest in peace, Pat! I first met Pat on Facebook very early in my identity career at WSO2, around 2008. Pat was a well-respected leader in the identity domain, leading the OpenSSO project at Sun Microsystems at the time. In 2009, he was humble enough to attend my talk at OSCON in San Jose on OpenID and share his feedback afterward. That was the first time I met him in person, and since then we've met several times at various identity conferences. When we started the Silicon Valley IAM meetup, he kindly helped make it successful and gave a talk on SCIM while he was at Salesforce, in 2015. He was a truly inspiring leader and, above all, a great human being. We will surely miss you. Rest in peace, @metadaddy !

The difference between a good student and a great one is that a good student is concerned more about the outcome while a great one is fascinated by the process of learning. - Richard P. Feynman
