Heh, glad to hear it!!
Just "Pass it On"! <<me grabs guitar, passes out candles to all present>>
My list includes many helpers also. Weedpacket was there at the beginning; and a host of gurus of the Elder Day: ednark, mogster, Super_string <sp?>, definitely Bunkermaster, Jayant, Clintonium and PyroX perhaps, intenz, certainly BuzzLY; then people like badsm, Mordecai, planetsim, LordS, and finally, most of the rest of your list these days. Seems like Piersk's been here for ever, but I can't recall, exactly. Queen Elizabeth keeps us all feeling welcome, too. && like you, I've forgotten many, I'm sure.
So, it really just comes down to community, which is one of the great things about open source software, like PHP 🙂 Maybe we should include Rasmus, Zeev and Andy, and Tim Perdue in our thanks, too!
