Hi Everyone,

Today is the last day of GSoC and I just tagged the final code GSoC release.
I just wanted to thank everyone at Umit for running such a wonderful outfit.
>From the onset of GSoC, everyone has been really friendly and helpful. For
me, personally, it has been a wonderful learning experience. I have gotten
the chance to play with (and even master) some tools and libraries that I
didn't know existed.

And now some individual acknowledgement:

- Rodolfo - For being so helpful whenever I bugged you about git. You never
let me down with your insight.
- Angad - For traceroute porting to Android and the general conversations
about Android.
- Adriano - For being a wonderful commander-in-chief and keeping everyone on
their toes. Also, for taking the lead on the specification and contributing
some amazing ideas, not to mention the idea of ICM itself.
- Diogo - The painstaking testing of Aggregator webservices that we did over
these last few months. For never getting edgy over the fact, that it took me
5 minutes or more to recompile and redeploy the agent code on the emulator
on average for every small change, meanwhile you had to wait everytime.
Also, for not cursing GAE so much.
- Alan - The long and annoying testing of p2p communication using byte
streams which took us a long time to perfect. For not getting cross during
my marathon recompiling sessions. Also, for more or less single-handedly
designing the p2p message formats and IDs.
- Luis - And last but not the least, my mentor and friend Luis. For leading
from the front. For suggesting great tools and libraries. Being there
whenever I hit a brick wall somewhere. For understanding when I took a
couple of days off when my friend passed away or when I had to go away for
my graduation party. For not getting pissed when the Internet messed up
during our Skype calls.

Thank you, everyone.

This is not the end of the road for me with Umit. GSoC might have ended but
I am still going to continue contributing to the ICM mobile agent and Umit
in general. So as of tomorrow I'm going to be an official Umit volunteer. I
look forward to working with all you in making the ICM a success. Because at
the end of the day, Umit is much more than an open source software
organization; it's a family.

Best,
