I am overwhelmed by the kindness of you all in wishing me well.  Thank you so much! 

The Festschrift that I was given last month came as a complete surprise - the editors and contributors all kept the secret for two years!  I am thrilled by the book and fascinated by the individual chapters in the book.  

As everyone knows, I care both about book production and about the free distribution of knowledge.  This book is beautifully designed and typeset (thank you, Petra) and edited (thank you Philipp and Anthony), and the PDF is available under an OA licence - a triple success!

With enormous gratitude to everyone,

Dominik
