MySQL mug vs iPod nano

It’s a tough life… I originally promised shwag like MySQL mugs for the beta challenge, then Kaj and I decided that Roland had really earned a more serious prize. Heck, the iPod nano didn’t even exist when we first announced the beta challenge!
Anyway, it appears that Roland was really looking forward to the mug, so I don’t want to disappoint him. It’s on its way, Roland! (no it’s not instead of the nano 😉

And eh, I took the opportunity to also send a mug and MySQL stickers to Eric Bergen at Yahoo!, who is always very helpful on the Freenode #mysql IRC channel. I believe that’s actually how he got his job there, he was spotted on the channel… excellent! A big thanks for you too, Eric!

  1. Hi Arjen,

    thanks for the gesture, I really appreciate it a lot! Of course, begging for the mug’s just for fun. And to be really, really clear on that, all jokes aside: It was your appeal accompanying the beta challenge announcement that made me want to participate, just as I wrote in the “..Thanks” blog entry.

    Roland.
