"frigging"??? Tamar, I'm shocked.:-)

Seriously, I think that part of the reason that this has become so important is that it's been so inclusive. It's the entire community at work. Over the years, some have expressed the sentiment that the people at MS either didn't listen to the community or care about it. I think that this gesture, if you will, signals in no uncertain terms that this is hardly the case. This is on top of some of the other wonderful things (like the MSDN Magazine article by Erik Moore) that have occurred.

I'm really sorry that I won't be at DevCon this year. I have this feeling that this will be one of the most memorable and talked about events of this year, and perhaps any year.
