Thank you all for having me also. I learned a lot.

You`all were wonderful and I look forward to seeing a bit more of your lovely country this week.

Thanks to the current trustees for making it happen, and thanks to the sponsors for all the schwaag and subsiding the event (as they always do!).

Like previous trustees Joe and Andy they have given much of themselves, of their time, and their expertise to make the Internet a better place through NOG coordination. I know this first hand in my role with AusNOG. It's a tireless beast. Often without thanks. It chews up personal lives and makes employers look at you with raised eyebrows. People often comment "why bother", and question your sanity. But ultimately what you have done makes the Internet better, and each person who takes it on and makes such efforts to this amazing concoction of technology contributes to an entire world of "better". And it's with that sincere goal which you have both plainly embodied, that I offer you MY thanks and my appreciation for all you have done. You deserve more than just this email, more than the beer I will buy you when next we meet ... you deserve the recognition for those selfless efforts. Well done.
