Congratulations, Kovid! On my list, calibre is #1. It'd be difficult for me to live without it now.

Congratulation on your very deserved recognition! Your software allows my Windows/Linux worlds to coexist and manage my single e-book library!

Thank you!

I'm not at all surprised Calibre made the list. It's my most used program on the computer after Firefox.

congrats!

Thanks, again everyone. I should take a minute to shout out to all the calibre contributors and open source projects calibre uses, without whom calibre would not exist. For an incomplete list, see

Congratulations Kovid, and thank you for a great piece of software!
I'm sure Calibre is in the top 5 of the most used and most appreciated programs for most of us here, open source or otherwise!

Ah well, that page does use rather a lot of javascript, probably breaks Opera.
