Indeed. Thanks, Reinier!

If you (or anybody else) want to work on convincing your employer to let you
specifically set aside some time to work on Darcs, talk to me.  We can try to
arrange things like logos on sponsor pages as a way of saying thanks (and also
help point out that employees working on open source is an excellent investment
as training if nothing else).

And of course, thanks to Petr as well!  You've put a tremendous amount of
energy into Darcs under the RM hat (I don't imagine that many RMs will, for
example, roll up their sleeves and go fix the Windows build so that we can
ship).  Hopefully you'll continue having fun with Darcs under the
hacker/buildbot wrangler/reviewer hats.

Yep.
