RE: Community Project Results

Fantastic. Thanks to all those who voted for Search Thresher. This will give
me the nudge needed to create the roadmap for monthly build updates. We will
of course, include anything that can support the other projects.

Looks like I owe a few people a beer or two ;)

BTW, what's ironic and seriously dumb, is that I didn't get a chance to
vote! How stupid is that.

Please accept our apology and belated regrets for not making the call :( On
the up side, I was talking about all this stuff to 11 seriously smart people
at an Internet brainstorming session in London yesterday.

Thanks
Paul
