Thank you everybody for making what is a great release. Dirk, translations or not, your efforts go well beyond 753 commits.<p></p>
<p dir="ltr">Yes, your numbers are misleading. I don't think I deserve to be as high on the list. But many little commits was your advice.</p>

A very healthy project. A few months ago I had never written a line of c. But I am an avid diver and such a good piece of free software backed by a friendly and clever team of developers encouraged me to become involved. Then I taught myself to read (part of) the code. To everybody, but Dirk and Robert especially, thank you for taking the time to review my contributions.</p>
