For those who like statistics:

bearophile has filed 435 enhancement requests, 44 of which have been  
implemented.
He has filed 567 regular bugs, of which 212 have been fixed.

Especially the last part is impressive. Only 3 other people have filed  
more bugs than bearophile has had fixed, and I find it unlikely all of  
their bugs have been fixed.

With this, allow me to join the chorus - congratulations, bearophile!
