Honored to be re-awarded MVP status

I received the email today that renewed my Microsoft MVP - Visual Developer Team System status. There was much rejoicing in my household.

Whew! I'm honored and relieved. It happens my renewal status falls on Jan. 1 of each year so I get to see if by around 11am GMT -5 I get an email saying- 'Congratulations! We are pleased to present you with the 2008 Microsoft® MVP Award!' I always sweat it. It can be a good or poor start to a new year.

Now to live up to the recognition and appreciation provided by Microsoft for this last years efforts and exceed the value in the coming year.

Congratulations to my fellow Team System MVPs that were renewed today (and all other MVPs renewed today). I look forward to working closely with you again this year. I have to say that the intimate, vocal and of course opinionated group of Team System MVPs and influencers are fantastic people to communicate with on a daily basis. And we really do communicate with extreme regularity.

See you at the MVP Summit! I missed it last year. I won't this year.
