The wikipedia edit doesn't cite any sources, but I've heard it from his coworkers at ITA and from https://twitter.com/CommonAngels/status/244137900336361472

Very sad to hear it. I really enjoyed hearing Dan's stories from his early days at MIT and his renewed interest in Common Lisp in the past few years was great.

He had a great Google Tech Talk on YouTube/Google Video a few years ago about ITA, but sadly it was taken down for some reason.

Here's a link to a note Dan wrote about the video being marked "private", as well as a link to some notes about the talk.
