The importance of praise, recognition and saying Thankyou

I've heard a few people at conferences over the last few years stress the importance of saying "Thankyou" to people that contribute to Open Source and organise all the great events and conferences that we are so lucky to have available to us.

I'm currently trying to complete the 2nd in the series of articles "Groovy around the Globe" for Groovy Mag. Whilst collecting the list of names and what they contribute, it's really hit me just how awesome they all are. The recognition I am giving them in the articles is my personal thankyou to them all for their continued efforts. Thankyou. Thankyou. Thankyou.
