Dear Plone,

Thank you for traveling from around the world.  Thank you for staying awake through your jetlag.  Thank you for dreaming big dreams.  Thank you for doing the hard work of boiling them down into priorities. Thank you for taking ownership and following up.

Thank you for trusting the process. Thank you for stepping forward into the space. Thank you for all of the great, constructive feedback. Thank you for letting me say “popcorn,” “twinkle” and “segue” while we leveraged our action items to a strong go-forward basis.

Thank you for making it easy and joyful to be in service to you.

P.S. Thank you, Google! Leslie, Tiffany (and Alex!), you were the most gracious and generous hosts a community could dream of. Thank you for going above and beyond to take great care of us. We are deeply grateful.
