Just want to say thanks for your work!

When I was elbow-deep in CLFS[1], I never ran into trouble getting Dropbear to compile and work with my fledgling Linux Distro, and upon reflection that is quite an accomplishment and something I'm thankful for.

Dropbear "just worked", and it worked well. It was the first "portal" into my Distro, and I can still remember SSH'ing into my system for the first time and being completely amazed it worked at all, let alone returned a shell prompt!

Open Source projects don't get enough appreciation, and our Open Source hero's, such as yourself, get even less. Thank you for Dropbear!
