Every once in a while (especially when I'm in the midst of an argument, like the current string-as-class thing), I like to stop and make sure people know how much I appreciate their input. I always find the discussions interesting, and I'm often awed by the huge commitments people have put into library development for the D community.

I've been reading this NG for more than five years now, and I'm always learning new stuff. A few years ago, at my job, I designed a domain specific language and wrote the parser and compiler for it (targeting a custom stack-based VM used in one of our products), and the knowledge I've gained from the geniuses in this community has been invaluable.

Most of all, much appreciation to Walter for his tireless work, especially when faced with the grumblings of curmudgeons like me. And also to Sean and Kris and Don and Lars and BCS and all the people who have contributed jillions of lines of code to tango and other libraries.

Thanks!!!
