Well done Sanjaya!
I echo the good wishes from the community. You were an early pioneer of the
WE family and I recall you joining the WikiEducator project early in August
2006 volunteering to assist with the conversion of the eLearning Guidebook
into open wiki format.
Wow, when you joined WikiEducator there were only 130 registered accounts -
compared with just short of 70,000 today.
