I should really second the motion. There are a so many people in the OS world (especially Ubuntu, of course) who are busying themselves making other people's lives better. I do a fair amount of volunteer email counselling so I know how rare it is to get any thanks in this kind of work. But all the tireless hours - not to mention repetitive stress injuries etc. - are deeply appreciated. It's having a very big impact on the world and making the Internet a far better place to live. Thanks! David Clinton
