Gosh, it's made it to #4 on the front page!

I guess we really do have "fringe-of-the-fringe" appeal ;-)

Wow, I'm impressed. I wonder what we are doing right? :-)

What an amazing day for LFE!
 * We sat at #3 and #4 on the front page of Hacker News for most of the late morning/early afternoon (Western US timezones)
 * We topped 20, then 50... the 100 points! Craziness :-)
 * We got so much love on Twitter that I can't even begin to summarize. Just mind-blowing.
 * 12 hours after the HN/Twitter storm, we are *still* on the front page of Hacker News (sitting at #21 right now)

We've never been on the front page for *that* long. Kinda unbelievable ...

All of this is a GREAT setup for Robert's LFE talk at FOSDEM :-)

Yes, I am very happy abut going to FOSDEM, first time, and presenting LFE there. I have understood that this is the first time they have a lisp devroom, which think is great in itself.
