Dear Garfield, Thank you for your positive attitude, constructive approach and diplomatic skills in the past years! I congratulate this foundation with persuading you to join them :) I wish you a lot of fun, both on and off the dance floor, and hope to see you around still - don't be a stranger!

Thanks for everything, Milos. It's been a pleasure and I won't be at all surprised to run into you again, if not in Wikimedia then in other free culture circles. There are lots of unfinished projects indeed -- for me, seeing the movement tackle increasingly hard and complex challenges successfully
