This afternoon I had the incredible honor of accepting an O’Reilly Open Source Award<\/a> at OSCON<\/a> for my work in the Ubuntu<\/a> community.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

It’s been an exciting day and thanks to all my supportive friends at OSCON who were there with hugs and handshakes, it was an unforgettable experience.<\/p>\n

Now I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Ubuntu community for being a community that I’ve wanted to spend all this time with. Through my work in the Ubuntu community I have not only found exceptional colleagues, but a support network that I have come to rely upon both personally and professionally and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it.<\/p>\n

Without hesitation, I can say “I am what I am because of who we all are.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you everyone!<\/p>\n

And congratulations to the others who also accepted an O’Reilly Open Source award today, Bradley Kuhn, Christie Koehler, Jim Jagielski and Massimo Banzi!<\/p>\n

Award announcement details, along with blurbs about our work here: O’Reilly Open Source Awards 2012<\/a>. Also, the folks at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories wrote a cool blog post<\/a> about how they created the awards with one of their Eggbot<\/a> kits. They were also gracious enough to gift us with Eggbots of our own, I’m excited to go home and build mine!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
