I just wanted to say a quick thanks for python. The language, libs, docs, and really the whole ecosystem are so well done, and I really appreciate all your amazing work.

Thanks for expressing this! It's good to let the Python developers know that, behind all the requests and complaints, lies a great current of mostly silent but appreciative Python users :-)

And, of course, I heartily second the sentiment. A happy new year and good fortune to all Python core developers in 2014!
