A decade as a core dev
Today marks my 10 year anniversary as a core developer on Python. I wrote a blog post to mark the occasion (http://sayspy.blogspot.ca/2013/04/a-decade-of-commits.html), but I wanted to personally thank python-dev for the past decade (and whatever comes in the future). All of you taught me how to really program and for that I will be eternally grateful. And the friendships I have built through this list are priceless.
Congrats Brett! I'd say you have learned a lot more than programming during your time here!! On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 8:02 AM, Brett Cannon <brett@python.org> wrote:

Oh yes, such as how to put on a flame-retardant suit, the colours of the rainbow based on the bikesheds, and how I will never be able to pronounce your name properly. =) Seriously though, yes, I've learned tons about all sorts of things during my time here. -Brett

Normally you should break a buildbot as a celebration :) cheers Antoine.

He might lose all his friends then. -- Regards, Benjamin
As an average python user, thank you for your commitment, and keep up the good work! Alfredo On Thu, Apr 18, 2013 at 8:57 PM, Barry Warsaw <barry@python.org> wrote:

Or do a release and go on vacation.

Wow 10 years that is incredible!! Your blog post was awesome. You are an inspiration to me as I just started contributing this past October. I can honestly see how you have spent 10 years of "spare hours" night time engineering. I find contributing a bit addictive myself. Here is what happens to me at night, on my right shoulder a little Guido appears out of thin air and says "go to bed" but then on my left shoulder another Guido appears and says "all you have to do is test this last patch". Next thing you know it is 2 am and I have to get up at 5 am for work so I convince myself to stay up all night. Indeed contributing to Python is very rewarding.

Thanks for the kind words.

I suspect the real Guido would say "go to bed" since there is always tomorrow. =)

Hah, I only have 2 years to go. Time flies like an unladen swallow... Congrats :) Georg
