Thanks for sending this email Ben. Not nearly often enough does 
recognition go around for these types of efforts. I think I can speak 
for the wider geoserver community when I say we are just glad that the 
app-schema/complex features work is finally coming home and is part of 
the geoserver core. Many of us have put a lot of hours into this effort, 
and it is finally becoming a reality.

And at the end of the day most of the thanks should go to you in 
overseeing the implementation and making this happen.
