I'd like to personally offer my public thanks to Nate for his contributions to the team. Nate has not only made significant technical contributions over the years, he also personally donated his time and equipment to house and administer the project's CVS repository until very recently. In addition to this Nate played a pivotal role in negotiating the license with Sun (you could say it was due in large part to his tireless effort). Thanks Nate for your help and dedication to the project and for the guidance and assistance you've provided me personally.
