Hi Carsten,

Thank you _so_ much for starting this project and shepherding it into
what it is today.  This is by far the best Personal Information Manager
I've ever used and it wouldn't have been possible without your constant
devotion to this project.

I completely understand how a project can grow into a monster that
consumes all of your free time and energy (and then some).

All the best in your new endeavours!

Best regards,

Bernt
