Anyway, you have the badge now :) http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment26http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment26Thu, 04 Oct 2007 09:22:28 GMTCongratulations, you definitely deserved it with all the work you have done for the community. http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment25http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment25Thu, 04 Oct 2007 07:31:52 GMTCheers!!! Now will be hard to "attack" MS stuff! http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment24http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment24Thu, 04 Oct 2007 07:13:47 GMTSee you in Seattle on MVP Summit ;) Congrats! -- Vladan http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment23http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment23Thu, 04 Oct 2007 07:12:57 GMTNobody deserves it more ... and they really would have to give you an MVP in so many categories to do your work justice, so picking one that is not your ideal match isn't really a problem, consider it a compliment! http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment22http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment22Thu, 04 Oct 2007 06:27:13 GMTCongratulations.

It'll be fun to have another ALT.NETer to hang with at the MVP Summit. You'll need to convince Microsoft to create a "MVP - Plain-text Developer - Boo". http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment18http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment18Wed, 03 Oct 2007 19:53:38 GMTCongrats Oren, well deserved in my opinion. Many people in the community share this opinion I see ;-). http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment17http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment17Wed, 03 Oct 2007 19:24:03 GMTCongratulations Ayende!

There is a selection process and yearly renewal, you can see MS' site for all the details http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment10http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment10Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:15:42 GMTCongrats. Any chance you'll be able to come to the MVP summit in April? I'd love to be a fly on the wall when you're turned loose in a room with some of the MS product teams ;-) http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment9http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment9Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:13:42 GMT kentaromiura, thanks, fixed http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment8http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment8Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:11:57 GMTCongrats Oren. Think of it as "visualize" developer. :) http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment7http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment7Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:07:37 GMTMazeltov. I too were convinced you were already one. How does that happen, anyway? You get recommended by someone else, and then they just accept you? http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment6http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment6Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:06:57 GMTCongratulations man! http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment5http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment5Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:04:38 GMTCongratulations Oren! Well deserved, imho. http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment4http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment4Wed, 03 Oct 2007 16:01:51 GMTMany congratulations. Somehow I'd kind of assumed that you were an MVP already. (And don't worry about the Visual stuff - I'm just the same, and it's definitely a "ah, find an vaguely appropriate pigeon hole" job.) http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment3http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment3Wed, 03 Oct 2007 15:49:18 GMTthe link is wrong, you use \ instead of / :D http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment2http://ayende.com/2822/microsoft-most-valuable-professional#comment2Wed, 03 Oct 2007 15:47:37 GMT
