I think that all that can be said at the moment is that he will be very sorely missed, and that he can never be truly replaced. Whilst I didn't know Thiemo at a personal level, I always found him to be very positive and encouraging, and his help and advice to be of great value. His work on the MIPS target speaks for itself, and I gather that he will be missed in many projects besides QEMU. To answer the question, it will certainly be harder and take longer to have patches applied until there's a maintainer, and I can't think of anyone who is likely to take over...
