Hello,

Back to holidays and after the time needed to read all my waiting email :) I 
am here again.

I would like to thanks Otto also. He did a lot of good jobs on documentation 
and was a great help when I started to contribute. I remember that you tell me 
that I have the skills to contribute during my first QGIS hackfest. Even if I 
started from the most part of my contribution to work on the translation, I am 
now working on the documentation.

This is something I learned working with such a great community: help people 
to contribute, and wait. At one moment, they will contribute more and more. it 
can be sum up with "Plant a seed. Be patient.".

Thanks you Otto :) and the PSC!

Y.
