Thank You for the Votes

The Oracle Database Developer Choice Awards voting is now closed.

I thank all of you who voted for me. It was an honor and privilege just to be nominated, and then even getting votes from somebody, well that feels good :-)

My final ranking is middling, but the competitors were all worthy and good people, so I have no complaints :-)
