Anyone who's been on the list for longer than a year understands what
a unique experience it is being a part of this community. And I can honestly say
this community would not exist without the sheer dedication and professionalism
of the people in Montreal. Yes, I DO know there are great folks at Tewks
who believe in the product and support it, but 13 years really count for
something when it comes to institutional memory and passion for excellence.
Congratulations Sylvain! Thanks for everything (especially during the beta
cycles!).

I'd also like to extend my sincere and grateful compliments to the
entire DS team, past and present.
I can only imagine the stuff that is happening "under the hood" with all
the great tools we take for granted.
Like the old saying, "the sum of the parts is greater than the
whole." I can honestly say that I do not enjoy
as much joy and satisfaction from any other product, vendor or
service than I do with with the DS family of friends.
I often think about how we will look back in 10 or 15 years and recall
this time. The same way we scoffed
at the technology in a recent thread from "the old days". Here we
are at the pinnacle of our current HD capablilties
and yet, we can only dream of what must certainly lie ahead.
Exciting and scary.
A brick layer can say "I built that house" and and artist can say "I made
that sculpture" but what we do
is not really tangible for long. It is a crazy, wonderful time to
be alive and on this earth with all of you wonderful
folks.
( And no....I'm am not gettin' into the egg nogg a little early.)
