I'm impressed that I could just head off to Holland for a week without
really telling many people that I was going at all. And then when I come
back pretty much all of the CMU Coda servers are happily running without
any problems and I see over 40 messages on the mailinglist where almost
every question is already answered.

Clearly my work here is done... Oops, got a conflict while trying to
send this email, maybe not.
