Wow - I received some gifts from the community/supporters that came totally unexpected which gave me great enjoyment and a real nice surprise

I’d like to specially thank Ido Schiferli from ChronoPay for their boxed gift set they sent from Holland. Receiving this definitely made my day and am real happy about it! The gift includes sweets, cocoa, wine, candles and a nice candle holder, spoons (for the cocoa), and an accompanying christmas card!

Here is a picture of it

Their card is on the bottom left of the picture.

I also got two other christmas cards! One from FirstGate on the upper left side, and the other from Penton (the organizers of the Internet World Messe event we attended) shown on the right side.

Thanks Markus Fuchs (FirstGate) and Regina Reitzer (Penton) for the cards - they really made my day!

Thanks also to everyone that sent me an email greeting - these are always great to receive and thanks for sharing your thoughts!

And as for our Christmas gift - we were able to provide one to our sponsors yesterday by starting the testing phase for the new release. We decided to first start this phase off with a group where the feedback can be controlled, and are working together to improve the quality to open it up to the public for a broader audience to participate in testing. More information about this will be posted after Christmas.

Thanks again to everyone and wish everyone a merry christmas, a great festive season, and a happy new year!
