Major Award
I recently won Erlanger of the Year at the Erlang User Conference 2008 in Stockholm.
I couldn't go to accept the award in-person, but here's a picture of me accepting it from my daughter, in a small ceremony at home.
It's an honor and a surprise to win this award. I hardly feel deserving, Erlang has been a key part of the success of CouchDB and it's such an astonishingly good match I was lucky to have discovered it when I did. Thanks!

Nice work there Damien. Not everyone puts their live, career, house on the line to build something they believe in. You did.
You deserve it mate. They going to fix the awful string handling now ? ;-)
