I'd like to dedicate this victory to all Anonymous Cowards and will accept the honor on their behalf. I do not need bouquets or chocolate so instead please donate to the EFF or the OpenBSD/OpenSSH team or any other pro-cryptography group or endeavor of your choice. I'd also like to use this opportunity to thank the birds outside the windows who often keep me company for their existence, particularly the swallows. And bumblebees and all other well-behaved arthropods. Thank you all!
