The year that:

1. Brought us some prove of our pudding: There are business opportunities around the open source vision. Even for smaller entities like ours.
2. Confirmed that running your own business is mainly Hard Work ™
3. Confirmed that the joy of self-control keeps the absolute justifying return of that work.
4. Extended the network of friends, partners and customers well outside the Belgium borders. (Again thx to the Open Source Factor)
5. Made me an Apache Cocoon committer, still very proud.
6. Guided Apache Cocoon into the realm of interactive applications. And in all modesty I think we have been playing our part of that game. Now the first half of 2004 should shape up. Stay tuned
7. Hosted another succesful Cocoon Gettogether
8. Brought you to this page :-)

Wishing you all, yes you too, the happy eagerness to enjoy 2004. That includes the 'Health, fun and friends' which are the typical prerequisites to get you there...
