Good morning people :)
Today is a special day. Is the birthday of someone now deservedly
retired. This person is Kern Sibbald. I had the opportunity of knowing
about his birthday, through one nice person in this mailing lists. Kern
is much more than a nice codder, who has write a extremely important
tool which is the base of most of our backups. At least for me is one of
my mentors, one of the persons from which I would like to learn because
it has done a nice job with Bacula. For all these reasons, I wanted to
say "thank you so much Kern and have an extremely happy birthday!!".
I wanted too, for making the most of this lines, to ask a little gift to
Kern :) :). I'm working as some of you know, in building a Bacula
pluggin for creating an open source delta encoding plugin for the fd. It
would be hugely nice :) :) (as someone told me too in this list) if
official Delta plugin of Bacula, could be distributed with the Community
source of Bacula. I'll go on writting my own plugin anyway, because I
wanted to learn how it works and for being able to customize some of the
backups I do here, but it would be really nice to have the Delta plugin
as part of the Community edition of this nice piece of software. I had
to try :) :) .
Anyway and independently of what Kern decides about the gift I have
asked :) :) (I had to try it... mainly after someone encouraged asking
it :) :) ), I wanted to emphasize my recognition about Kern's person,
due to all his contributions to the open source world. These ideas,
anyway, would never change in my mind about you.
So for ending this email, I think there are not more appropiate words
for being remarked as the following ones : "Kern, Thank you so much".
Cheers :)
