This way, you didn't have to worry about the report getting too long due to the reflections ;-) You could consider linking each of these to the other ones, though. That would help tie things up. Some other thoughts: > This mild dogfooding went a long way into making my work feel far more > enjoyable and meaningful (if working on a project used my millions was > already not meaningful enough). Dogfooding is one of those thing that's surprisingly effective at all times :-) BTW, s/my millions/by millions/ > CoViD. Good to know that all are well. I resonate with what Zheing Hu says.

I believe MyFirstContribution is a testimony for this. It's glad to know you would like to help contributors in that way :-) > This won't be the last time you will see me on the list, of course.

Also, thanks for all your contributions so far! Hoping to see more patches from you on the list :-) -- Sivaraam
