Thanks Patrick. Your words are like honey to me :-)


For all of you not having facebook (from an addicted facebook user) I want to let you know that some of you were mentioned (and appear) in my key note and thanks (without permission, there was no time to ask you - sorry sorry). And for the people not mentioned, well, sorry again, there was not enough room in the slides but You All are in my heart and I want to thanks you much more!

“No good deed goes unpunished!” What?

You are getting an award for all your good work!

What’s this world coming to? Well, it’s about time!!!



Maria, you are being recognized for a long and illustrious history of magnificent leadership for GIS solutions, the kind of open solutions that not only generously benefit the world community, but also challenge us by putting our feet directly on shoulders of those giants (yourself!) who care so much about what we can accomplish by working together.



Thanks for all your love, your passion for excellence and your beautiful *open spirit,* at once a gift and also a challenge to the open spirit in us all. We dearly need your leadership! Good luck with the rest of your journey!



-Patrick

Thank you Suchith and thanks to all members of this generous community.

This is an award that I want to share with all FOSS4G Educators and GeoForAll members.



And now, as Patrick recalled me in the last mail he sent me "you really have to make the world a better place!"



And we'll do that!

A warm hug!

Maria
