MVP & MSFT!#

Woohoo, I've just been awarded as a Most Valuable Professional (MVP) by Microsoft!

Dear Jelle Druyts,

Congratulations! We are pleased to present you with the 2007 Microsoft® MVP Award!

The Microsoft MVP Award is our way of saying thank you and to honor and support the significant contributions you make to communities worldwide. As a recipient of Microsoft’s Most Valuable Professional award, you join an elite group of technical community leaders from around the world who foster the free and objective exchange of knowledge by actively sharing your real world expertise with users and Microsoft. Microsoft salutes all MVPs for promoting the spirit of community and enhancing people’s lives and the industry’s success everyday. To learn more about the MVP Program, visit: www.microsoft.com/mvp.

Your extraordinary efforts in Visual Developer - Visual C# technical communities during the past year are greatly appreciated.

On behalf of everyone at Microsoft, thank you for your ongoing contributions to Visual Developer - Visual C# technical communities.

Sincerely,

Candice Pedersen, MVP Program Manager

On a related note (Tom already mentioned it briefly), I was also "awarded" with a full time employee contract by Microsoft :-) So this effectively means I've changed jobs to the Microsoft Services division at Microsoft BeLux (no, not Microsoft Corp like the other MVP's of this country seem to do all the time ;-) ) as of this week. I've had a great time at the Compuware Professional Services division the last years, and I really want to wish the team all the best! Now, I'm taking up the challenge of representing Microsoft for our customers as a development consultant, and making sure their development efforts are running as smoothly as possible!

Congrats! So you won't be an MVP for a long time ... :-)

Thanks! I'm not sure what the rules are, but I'm assuming indeed that the MVP award will be timebombed at a year for me ;-)

Hey buddy, well it saddens me to bring this news to you but since MSFT employees cannot be MVP's you'll probably lose the title within this month. Enjoy it while it lasts, you've definitely deserved it.

Hello Jelle, congratulations! That deserves a couple of Rocheforts or Chimays and I would like take over the MSDN Premium with Team Suite subscription that comes with the MVP award :-)

Congrats for your new job. I am new to your blog. But you write pretty cool stuff on .NET and GAT. :)

This is my personal website, not my boss', not my mother's, and certainly not the pope's. My personal opinions may be irrelevant, inaccurate, boring or even plain wrong, I'm sorry if that makes you feel uncomfortable. But then again, you don't have to read them, I just hope you'll find something interesting here now and then. I'll certainly do my best. But if you don't like it, go read the pope's blog. I'm sure it's fascinating.
