Yesterday evening, I received the following e-mail:

Translated in short: I’m now officially an MVP ASP.NET! I am really honored to be recognized as an MVP. Thank you for the nomination!

The past year has been quite fun, doing lots of blog posts, a book on ASP.NET MVC, various speaking sessions at VISUG, DevDays, PHP Conference, … Guess now I’m obligated to stay active in community :-) The next two weeks will be community less however, since I’m off on a vacation. See/write/… you in a week or two!
