 I was talking in terms of the award he mentions in his email. That should
 go to the society, if it is ever awarded.

 In terms of praise or individual mentions, it is different. Everyone who
 contributed and like to share an international spotlight, should be
invited...

 Anyway, let us not loose the focus in all this credits and praises talk.
 I for one would like to get on with the PyCon discussions for next year
 and actually doing some Python hacking ... !
