Congratulations on a great year, Ricardo. So many hits from all over the world. I was surprised about the most viewed post (a Python post from August 2011?) as well as the most frequent commenter (romarome – is that another name for ssec?). The former I can fathom, the latter I can’t.
Yeah, i think it must be ssec — or some weird name for me!
