My feeling, which I'm sure would be supported by a great many people, is
that you have made huge contributions to PostgreSQL, all very much
appreciated.

Yes, that may not have been visible to all because much of that was via
the Slony project, though I know of your quieter contributions to other
major projects. Slony alone has been the backbone of PostgreSQL across
many releases and will continue to be important in the future also.
