I Anthony Simpson, with the support of fellow Clojurists hereby declare March 20th, the first day of spring, Rich Hickey appreciation day!
Rich Hickey has certainly done a lot for us, making this wonderful language and continuing to take his time to work on it. He is dedicated and he wants to bring Clojure along with it's users to heights that Lisp has never been before. In just some 2 years, Rich has gathered together a vibrant and large community of users and contributors who believe in Clojure's future immensely . One such contributor who believes in Clojure enough to write an entire book on it! Clojure gains more attention and support everyday. I believe in the bright future that Rich Hickey believes exists for Clojure. I believe that with this community, and with such a wonderful creator as Rich Hickey, Clojure will achieve it's goals and meet the destiny that Rich is writing for it. I thank you Rich Hicky for all your work on Clojure. I thank you for all the time you've spent building this community and giving us one of the most awesome languages that have existed. Thank you for caring about us enough to listen to the community before making big changes, I believe in Clojure and I will be here watching it evolve with you! If you would like to thank Rich Hickey for all he has done for us, you can post in this thread, or tell him yourself in the #Clojure IRC channel. :) March 20th 2009 Rich Hickey Appreciation Day -Rayne --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
