Thanks Göran. A big, big thanks - after all you've been organizing the 
whole election.

I'm very happy to see the results. I think those are good choices and I 
think we can work together to move this community and its core artifact 
forward by a good amount.

The next year will certainly be interesting: We have a license-clean 
release coming up, closures are on the way in, we'll get a more 
transparent contribution process, we have much better tools to deal with 
integration from different sources. What could possibly go wrong? (just 
kidding ;-)

Cheers,
   - Andreas
