Thanks to everyone for the kind words. It has been my pleasure to contribute to such a community as Apache and I plan on continuing doing so as much as possible.
Many thanks to Jim, Eric, Yann, Rainer, Kaspar and all the others that have made me welcome here right from the start and who helped me settle in. It's a project with an immense history and there is always something more to learn about it. When Apache httpd now speaks HTTP/2, then it's mainly Tatsuhiro Tsujikawa's work in nghttp2 that made this feasible. Many thanks to his excellent work and his nice support! As Jeff wrote: this all would not have happened if not for the sponsoring of the GSMA and Telefonica. Particularly Dan Druta and Istvan Lajtos have been driving the idea from the start and Oscar Gonzalez accompanied the project in its execution phase. Great work! My employer, greenbytes, is also partly my company, so I could thank myself. However my partners, Julian Reschke and Martin Böttcher, also deserve thanks for supporting this endeavor. We are but a very small company and it is not possible to sponsor a full time person for a long duration. We will continue looking for sponsors to do work in Apache. Such projects really give the greatest worth for all parties involved as can be seen today. Again, Thanks! //Stefan > Am 14.10.2015 um 16:20 schrieb Yann Ylavic <ylavic....@gmail.com>: > > +1, thanks Stefan! > > On Wed, Oct 14, 2015 at 2:58 PM, Jim Jagielski <j...@jagunet.com> wrote: >> The ASF is all about recognizing and rewarding merit.
