Phil,

Thank you for that. And my thanks to one and all who have 'carried the
mail', lo these many years now.

As time has been passing, I'd suggest adding, so future joiners don't
forget, next to Phil Hazel's entry:

'Originating architect and author of the Exim project"

....or something of similar nature.

And next to your own:

'Dispatcher and principle Cat Herder, by default if not consensus.'

..or such.

I'm also grateful there is no entry for:

'Enduring contrarian and general pain in the a**',

...as I, too, am retiring.

;-)

Bill
