Derek,
Thank you for your contributions. They have benefited me and many of the sites I have worked on greatly. Right now CI is being used for applications that literally affect every child in the US (NCLB .. hint .. hint). It is being used by quiet think tanks that may help change the world for the better (I am hopeful). Never forget that your ripple effects the entire pond.

On another note I meet with a University in a few days to recommend a content management system (this would be my second recommendation for Expression Engine to a university). Until now I was going to recommend expression engine (although the last one went with Drupal because they couldn’t get a test copy ... good thing its not important to get into a University and become the standard) but I pause and wonder what is the climate at Ellis Lab like right now. Is there an ill wind of change?
Thanks again
USMC
